SHIVA-COMM-MIB

Description: Manages Shiva remote access server communication port configuration and dial-up session state.

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.

SHIVA-COMM-MIB is a private enterprise MIB from Shiva Corporation for managing communication port configuration and dial-up session state on Shiva remote access servers. It is expected to expose per-port configuration (line speed, modem/dial parameters) and session-state information (active call/session status) for the device's communication ports, consistent with its role as the comm-port counterpart to Shiva's IP-focused MIB. Its monitoring value centers on the software/session status of dial-up ports -- confirming whether a given port has an active call, and its configured communication parameters -- functioning as a form of process/service status monitoring for the RAS's port pool. It depends on Shiva's private enterprise conventions and likely complements standard RS-232/modem MIB concepts rather than a specific IETF standard. It was deployed on legacy Shiva remote-access servers providing dial-up connectivity in enterprise remote-access environments. Engineers can download the SHIVA-COMM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

Only the IMPORTS clause was available in this source with no concrete object or table names, so a specific polling scenario cannot be responsibly constructed; in general, an admin managing a Shiva RAS would expect to check per-port session/call status to identify hung or disconnected dial-up ports.

Configures SNMP community access control including trap host settings and privilege levels for set operations on Shiva devices.
