Description: Provides enhanced system status objects and additional health indicators for newer Opengear appliance firmware.

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 OG-STATUSv2-MIB?

This MIB is Opengear's enhanced, second-generation status and alert module providing extended system health and serial port configuration objects for newer firmware on its out-of-band management appliances, superseding the older OG-CM-STATUS-MIB. It exposes system identity objects (firmware version, serial number), a detailed serial port configuration table (label, speed, data bits, parity, stop bits, flow control, mode), and general system/alarm status groupings. Its monitoring emphasis covers both software status (firmware version tracking, port configuration/mode) and general appliance health via its alarm objects, letting an administrator confirm the appliance is running expected firmware and that console ports are configured correctly. As a newer version of an existing vendor MIB, it conceptually depends on the original OG-CM-STATUS-MIB's port-status model while extending it, though it does not itself indicate a formal IETF MIB dependency. It is deployed on newer-firmware Opengear console server appliances used for remote out-of-band management. Engineers can download the OG-STATUSv2-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in OG-STATUSv2-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

  • Opengear console server/out-of-band management appliance

Monitoring Examples

An administrator would check ogFirmwareVersion and ogSerialNumber to confirm an Opengear unit is running the expected software build before troubleshooting further. Polling ogSerialPortTable's ogSerialPortLabel, ogSerialPortSpeed, and ogSerialPortFlowControl for a given ogSerialPortIndex verifies a console port is configured to match the attached device's serial settings. A port configured with mismatched ogSerialPortParity or ogSerialPortStopBits relative to the connected device would produce garbled console output, a common root cause investigated via this table, while ogAlarm status objects flag broader appliance-level alerts.

What Can Be Monitored

  • firmware version
  • serial number
  • serial port configuration (speed, parity, flow control, mode)
  • system alarm status

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using ogSerialPortRxBytes OID:

Select an Opengear console server/out-of-band management appliance (extended status/alert, newer firmware) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type ogSerialPortRxBytes into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. It reports the serial port bytes received. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is a Counter64-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the counter increases sharply between polls relative to its normal baseline, since an unexpected spike often reflects a real change in traffic or activity. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
