Description: Provides legacy Cisco IOS IPX/Novell routing and SAP objects from early Cisco IOS versions.

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 OLD-CISCO-NOVELL-MIB?

OLD-CISCO-NOVELL-MIB is a legacy proprietary Cisco MIB from early Cisco IOS releases that predates the standardized IPX MIB, providing objects for Novell IPX/SAP routing on Cisco routers. No module description or sample objects were captured for this module, indicating it is an older, sparsely-documented artifact largely superseded by later IPX and SAP MIBs in modern IOS. Historically such MIBs exposed IPX interface state, routing table entries, and SAP (Service Advertising Protocol) service listings rather than hardware health data. Because it is Cisco-proprietary and IPX-specific, it has no dependency on modern IETF standards and is tied to the now largely retired Novell NetWare/IPX protocol stack. It would only be encountered when managing very old Cisco routers still running legacy IPX routing in a Novell NetWare environment. Engineers can download the OLD-CISCO-NOVELL-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in OLD-CISCO-NOVELL-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 IOS router (legacy)
  • Novell IPX network device

Monitoring Examples

Specific object and table names were not available in the source extract, so a concrete polling scenario cannot be described with confidence; historically, MIBs of this class exposed IPX routing table and SAP advertisement entries an administrator would poll to confirm IPX routes and Novell services were being advertised correctly.

What Can Be Monitored

  • IPX routing table entries
  • SAP service advertisements
  • IPX interface status
