Description: Manages port and network configuration for the Avocent Cyclades ACS 5000 console server.

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 CYCLADES-ACS5K-CONF-MIB?

CYCLADES-ACS5K-CONF-MIB is a vendor MIB for the Avocent (Cyclades) ACS 5000 series console/terminal server, covering its configuration for network and console access. It exposes system identity settings (hostname, console banner, message of the day), Ethernet interface configuration including DHCP client mode, primary and secondary IPv4 addresses/masks, MTU, and IPv6 enablement/addressing method. It is used to monitor and verify the device's software-configured network identity and connectivity settings, which is important for confirming that a console server used for out-of-band management is reachable and correctly addressed, especially after a configuration change or failover to a secondary IP. It is a vendor-specific configuration MIB that typically sits alongside standard MIB-II system and interface objects for the device's operational counters. It is deployed in data centers and network operations environments where ACS 5000 console servers provide out-of-band serial/console access to other infrastructure. Engineers can download the CYCLADES-ACS5K-CONF-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in CYCLADES-ACS5K-CONF-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

  • Avocent Cyclades ACS 5000 console/terminal server

Monitoring Examples

An admin reads cyHostName, cyConsoleBanner, and cyMotd to confirm the device identifies itself correctly to users connecting for out-of-band access. Checking cyEthDhcpc alongside cyEthIPaddr/cyEthIPmask and the secondary cyEthIPaddr2/cyEthIPmask2 reveals whether the unit is using a static or DHCP-assigned address and whether a backup address is configured. Monitoring cyEnableIPv4, cyEnableIPv6, and cyIPv6Method after a network change helps confirm the intended IP protocol configuration took effect, catching a misconfiguration that could lock administrators out of console access.

What Can Be Monitored

  • hostname and console banner/MOTD
  • Ethernet DHCP client mode
  • primary and secondary IPv4 address/mask
  • MTU
  • IPv4/IPv6 enablement and IPv6 addressing method
