Description: Provides SNMPv2 management objects for DPS Telecom V38 series network alarm management units.

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 DPS-MIB-V38-V2?

The DPS-MIB-V38-V2 MIB is a DPS Telecom proprietary set of SNMPv2 management objects for the second-generation T/Mon V38 series remote telemetry/alarm units used for network alarm monitoring. It exposes device identity information (manufacturer, model, software version) alongside an alarm table that tracks individual alarm points across monitored sites. Its core purpose is fault/status monitoring: tmonV2AlarmTable entries expose per-alarm state and severity along with the site and description of each alarm condition, and tmonV2IdentSoftwareVersion lets an operator confirm the firmware level running on the remote telemetry unit. It is a self-contained vendor MIB without apparent dependency on external IETF MIBs beyond standard SNMPv2 conventions. It is deployed in telecom central offices, cell sites, and remote facilities where DPS Telecom RTUs (Remote Telemetry Units) monitor environmental and equipment alarms (door, power, temperature, etc.) and report them back over SNMP.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in DPS-MIB-V38-V2. 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

  • DPS Telecom NetGuardian 832A G6 — current-generation RTU/alarm monitoring unit succeeding the legacy V38-series telemetry line

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would poll tmonV2AlarmTable/tmonV2AlarmEntry, keyed by tmonV2AIndex, to see tmonV2AState and tmonV2ASeverity for each monitored alarm point, along with tmonV2ASite and tmonV2ADesc identifying what and where the alarm is. tmonV2AChgDate and tmonV2AChgTime would be checked to see when an alarm last changed state, helping distinguish a fresh fault from a stale one. tmonV2IdentModel and tmonV2IdentSoftwareVersion would be polled to confirm which RTU model and firmware version generated the alarm, useful when triaging a site-wide fault report.

What Can Be Monitored

  • per-alarm state and severity
  • alarm site and description
  • alarm last-change date/time
  • device manufacturer/model
  • software version
