NCD-MIB-1

Description: Defines management objects for NCD (Network Computing Devices) X-terminal and thin-client hardware.

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.

NCD-MIB-1 is a vendor MIB from Network Computing Devices (NCD), a company known for manufacturing X-terminal and thin-client hardware used to access remote UNIX/X11 desktop sessions in the 1990s. It is intended to define management objects specific to NCD's X-terminal devices, though no specific object or table names were available in the source material examined here. Typically, a MIB for this class of device would expose hardware/software status such as terminal boot/firmware state, memory configuration, and network connection parameters relevant to managing a fleet of thin-client terminals from a central console. As an X-terminal-era hardware MIB, it likely relies on standard MIB-II objects for basic device identification and network interface status, layered with NCD-specific extensions. It would have been deployed in legacy enterprise or academic UNIX environments using NCD X-terminals as low-cost graphical access devices, a technology largely obsolete today. Engineers can download the NCD-MIB-1 file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No object or table names were available for this MIB in the source material, so a concrete polling scenario cannot be constructed without risking invented object names. In general, an administrator managing a fleet of NCD X-terminals would be expected to poll device identification, firmware version, and network configuration status to track terminal health remotely, but specific object identifiers are not available here.
