Description: MIB for DKSF-253 NetPing device firmware 6.x variant A providing environmental monitoring and control objects.

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 DKSF-253-6-X-A-X?

This is a NetPing enterprise MIB (DKSF-253 variant, firmware 6.x) for a NetPing remote sensing and control device used for environmental and I/O monitoring in equipment racks or utility closets. It exposes a generic I/O line table covering digital input/output levels, pulse counting, and associated trap configuration for each I/O line on the device. Its monitoring focus is hardware status of connected sensors and contacts: reading input levels (e.g., door contacts, leak sensors), pulse counts (e.g., from utility meters), and generating traps when an input level crosses a configured threshold. As a self-contained hardware I/O device MIB it has no apparent dependency on other standard MIBs. It is typically deployed in server rooms, telecom cabinets, or remote sites where a small NetPing appliance provides remote-sensing inputs and relay-style control over a network link. Engineers can download the DKSF-253-6-X-A-X file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in DKSF-253-6-X-A-X. 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

  • NetPing DKSF-253 remote sensing/IO device

Monitoring Examples

An administrator can poll npIoTable/npIoEntry, indexed by npIoLineN, to read npIoLevelIn and npIoLevelOut for each I/O line, revealing the current state of a connected sensor such as a door or water-leak contact. The npIoPulseCounter and npIoSinglePulseDuration objects can be used to track pulse-based inputs like a utility meter, while npIoTrapLineN and npIoTrapLevelIn configure which line transitions generate an SNMP trap, for example alerting when a door contact opens unexpectedly.

What Can Be Monitored

  • digital input/output level per line
  • pulse counter and pulse duration
  • trap-triggering input level per line

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using npIoPulseCounter OID:

Select a NetPing DKSF-253 remote sensing/IO device as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type npIoPulseCounter into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the pulse Counter (counts positive fronts) Write 0 to reset. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
