What Is VIPTELA-DOT1X?

VIPTELA-DOT1X is a vendor MIB from Viptela (Cisco SD-WAN) that models IEEE 802.1X network access control configuration and operational state on SD-WAN edge device interfaces. It exposes per-interface 802.1X operational state, host mode, control direction, MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) settings, Wake-on-LAN, timers, and guest VLAN assignment. Its monitoring relevance is chiefly configuration/software-status oriented — tracking dot1xInterfacesOperState to confirm whether 802.1X enforcement is active on a port and verifying reauthentication/inactivity timeout settings, which is more of an access-control status check than a hardware health check. It models the IEEE 802.1X standard as its underlying reference framework. It is typically deployed on Viptela/Cisco SD-WAN edge routers/switches providing port-based network access control at branch sites. Network engineers evaluating or troubleshooting this functionality can download the VIPTELA-DOT1X file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in VIPTELA-DOT1X. 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

  • Viptela/Cisco SD-WAN edge routers/switches

Monitoring Examples

An admin polls dot1xInterfacesTable/dot1xInterfacesEntry keyed by dot1xInterfacesIfName to check dot1xInterfacesOperState and dot1xInterfacesHostMode on a branch access port. If dot1xInterfacesOperState shows disabled when it should be enforcing 802.1X, or dot1xInterfacesGuestVlan is unexpectedly active, that flags a misconfigured port allowing unauthenticated access.

What Can Be Monitored

  • 802.1X operational state per interface
  • host mode and control direction
  • MAB server/local settings
  • reauthentication/inactivity timeouts
  • guest VLAN assignment

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using dot1xInterfacesOperState OID:

Select a Viptela/Cisco SD-WAN edge routers/switch (802.1X port-authentication operational state status) 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 dot1xInterfacesOperState 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 operational state. 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 an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the value is anything other than 'up', since that indicates the condition this object reports has changed to one worth investigating. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
