Category: Network Interfaces, Vendor: HP/HPE

Description: Provides unified network management objects for Compaq/HP ProLiant server NIC teaming and bonding.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is CPQNUNIF-MIB?

Despite the "unified network" short description, the sampled objects for CPQNUNIF-MIB point to a Compaq "Universal Network Interface Framework" module that manages registered sub-modules and serial-port configuration on Compaq/HP network management hardware, rather than NIC teaming specifically. It exposes a module registration table (cpqnMibModuleTable/Entry with index, description, and OID) plus serial-port configuration objects (cpqnSerialPortTable/Entry, cpqnPrimarySerialPort, modem-init-string settings) and a unit-reset control (cpqnUnitReset). Its monitoring value lies in confirming which management sub-modules are registered/active on the device and the configuration/status of its serial console/modem ports, alongside the ability to trigger a controlled reset. It sits under the shared "compaq"/"cpqnCommon" OID tree, implying dependency on Compaq's broader enterprise MIB conventions and other cpqn-prefixed modules for full functionality. It is typically deployed on legacy Compaq/HP network management hardware where administrators track which management modules are loaded and manage serial/modem-based out-of-band access. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the CPQNUNIF-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CPQNUNIF-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • Compaq/HP network management appliance (Universal Network Interface Framework)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would walk cpqnMibModuleTable/cpqnMibModuleEntry to see which management sub-modules (via cpqnMibModuleDescr and cpqnMibModuleOid) are currently registered on the device, and check cpqnSerialPortTable/cpqnSerialPortEntry along with cpqnPrimarySerialPort to confirm serial console or modem-based access is configured as expected. Setting cpqnUnitReset would trigger a remote reset, so its presence and any unexpected state change would be worth auditing for unauthorized use.

What Can Be Monitored

  • registered management sub-modules
  • serial port configuration
  • primary serial port assignment
  • modem init-string settings
  • remote unit reset control
