Description: Monitors Swatch watchdog events, threshold crossings, and simple event notification objects.

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 SWATCH-MIB?

SWATCH-MIB is a legacy server-monitoring proprietary MIB (enterprise OID 1931) implementing synthetic service checks against remote servers/URLs. Its objects cover monitored-server count and next-index counter, and a service table (index, request name, status, URL, username/password, proxy, service status, description, response time (string/integer), time-exceeded flag, max-wait, level, error, bytes read, throughput, port number/type, options, and request count). As a performance/status MIB it lets an administrator watch response time and success/failure status for each monitored server/URL check on this legacy synthetic-monitoring agent. It is deployed on legacy server-availability monitoring agents (enterprise OID 1931). Engineers can download the SWATCH-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in SWATCH-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

  • Legacy server-availability monitoring agents (enterprise OID 1931)

Monitoring Examples

An administrator checks isResponseTime and isServiceStatus to confirm a monitored server/URL check's latency and health on this legacy synthetic-monitoring agent.
