Description: A Microsoft MIB for monitoring Internet Information Services (IIS) web server performance and status via SNMP.
IPNetwork Monitor uses several OIDs from this MIB in network discovery and polling the applicable devices. Start monitoring INTERNETSERVER-MIB with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor.
What Is INTERNETSERVER-MIB?
INTERNETSERVER-MIB is a Microsoft-originated MIB for monitoring Internet Information Services (IIS), the Windows web/FTP/SMTP server platform, via SNMP. It belongs to the software/application-server monitoring category rather than physical hardware monitoring. Based on its stated purpose, it would expose IIS service-level data such as per-site status, active connections, requests-per-second, and bytes sent/received for the web, FTP, and other IIS-hosted services. Its monitoring value centers on software status - whether IIS services are running, their current load (connections/requests), and throughput - similar to the performance counters IIS exposes natively through Windows Performance Monitor. It presumably depends on Microsoft's Windows SNMP extension agent framework rather than another IETF MIB, and is deployed on Windows Server machines running IIS in enterprise or hosting environments. Engineers can download the INTERNETSERVER-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in INTERNETSERVER-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 Internet Information Services (IIS)
Monitoring Examples
No module description or sample objects were available for this MIB, so specific object or table names cannot be grounded; its documented purpose implies polling IIS service status and traffic counters (e.g., active connections, requests served) per site, but no concrete object names can be confirmed from the available data.
