Description: Defines managed objects for monitoring Microsoft IIS FTP server activity via SNMP.

IPNetwork Monitor uses several OIDs from this MIB in network discovery and polling the applicable devices. Start monitoring FTPSERVER-MIB with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor.

What Is FTPSERVER-MIB?

FTPSERVER-MIB defines managed objects for monitoring the FTP service component of Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) via SNMP, giving visibility into the file transfer server's operational activity. It generally exposes categories of data such as current connection counts, transfer statistics, and service-level counters for the FTP daemon running on a Windows server. Its monitoring focus is on software/service status, specifically whether the FTP service is up and how heavily it is being used, which helps detect service outages, unusual connection spikes, or performance degradation. As an IIS-specific extension it is tied to the Windows/IIS management model and would typically be seen alongside other Microsoft server MIBs. It is deployed on Windows Server systems running IIS with the FTP Server role enabled for legacy file transfer services. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the FTPSERVER-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in FTPSERVER-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

Windows Server running Microsoft IIS FTP Server

Monitoring Examples

No sample object names were provided for this MIB, so no concrete polling example with real identifiers can be given without inventing them; generally an admin would expect to monitor current FTP connections and bytes/files transferred to spot service overload or unexpected drops in activity.

What Can Be Monitored

current FTP connections
files/bytes transferred
FTP service status
