Description: Manages local user accounts and authentication settings on Cisco ME1200 switches.
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 ME1200-USERS-MIB?
This is a Cisco private MIB module for the ME1200 Metro Ethernet switch that manages local user accounts and their privilege levels for device authentication. It exposes a configuration table of usernames, privilege levels, and encrypted/plaintext password settings, plus row-editor objects for adding, modifying, or deleting user accounts via SNMP. This module is a configuration/security-audit MIB rather than a performance MIB, and its monitoring value lies in verifying which local accounts exist and at what privilege level, supporting security compliance checks rather than hardware or traffic monitoring. It has no notable dependency on standard MIBs, being a self-contained proprietary user-management model. It is deployed on ME1200 switches wherever local (non-RADIUS/TACACS+) user authentication is used for device management access. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the ME1200-USERS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ME1200-USERS-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
- Cisco ME1200 Metro Ethernet switch
Monitoring Examples
An operator would poll me1200UsersConfigTable / me1200UsersConfigEntry to enumerate me1200UsersConfigUsername and me1200UsersConfigPrivilege for each account, auditing that only authorized users with appropriate privilege levels exist on the switch. me1200UsersConfigEncrypted indicates whether a stored me1200UsersConfigPassword is hashed, which matters for a security posture review. Because password data is sensitive, write access via the TableRowEditor objects is typically more operationally relevant than read-polling for monitoring.
What Can Be Monitored
- local user account list
- user privilege level
- password encryption status
