What Is NMS-REMOTE-PING-MIB?
NMS-REMOTE-PING-MIB is a vendor-specific MIB from NMS Communications that provides configuration and results storage for remote ICMP ping probes initiated from the managed device. It exposes a table of configured ping "set" entries defining target addresses and probe parameters, alongside stored results such as round-trip latency. This MIB is used specifically for active network-performance monitoring: an operator configures ping tests toward remote hosts and then polls the resulting latency and reachability data to assess path health, rather than monitoring the device's own hardware. It functions similarly in spirit to the standards-based DISMAN-PING-MIB, though it is a proprietary NMS implementation rather than a direct dependency. It is typically deployed where an NMS Communications device is used as a network probe point to continuously validate reachability and latency to critical remote endpoints. Engineers can download the NMS-REMOTE-PING-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in NMS-REMOTE-PING-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
- nms Co., Ltd. network device (remote ICMP ping probes, vendor unidentified)
Monitoring Examples
An operator would create entries in the remote ping set table specifying a destination IP address and probe interval, then poll the corresponding result objects for round-trip time and completion status. A sustained increase in round-trip latency or repeated probe failures for a given ping set entry would indicate degraded connectivity or an unreachable remote host. Because no explicit object names were available in the source data, this description is grounded in the module's stated purpose of storing remote ping set configuration and latency results.
What Can Be Monitored
- configured ping target addresses
- round-trip latency results
- ping probe reachability/status
