Description: Provides WatchGuard appliance system information including hardware inventory, software versions, and license status.
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 WATCHGUARD-INFO-SYSTEM-MIB?
WATCHGUARD-INFO-SYSTEM-MIB is WatchGuard's core system information MIB for its Firebox/XTM security appliances, providing general device identity and status data such as hardware model/inventory, software/firmware version, and license status, referenced and used by companion WatchGuard MIBs (wgClientMIB, wgSystemStatisticsMIB, wgIpsecTunnelMIB). It exposes foundational device metadata rather than deep per-subsystem counters, acting as the base system-info module for the broader WatchGuard MIB suite. Its monitoring purpose is directly about hardware/software status: confirming the appliance's software/firmware version, license validity, and hardware identity, which are prerequisites for interpreting statistics and tunnel data reported by the companion MIBs. It has an explicit stated dependency relationship, feeding shared system-identity information into wgInfoSystemMIB, wgClientMIB, wgSystemStatisticsMIB, and wgIpsecTunnelMIB. It is deployed on WatchGuard Firebox/XTM firewall/UTM appliances in enterprise and SMB network security deployments. Engineers can download the WATCHGUARD-INFO-SYSTEM-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in WATCHGUARD-INFO-SYSTEM-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
- WatchGuard Firebox/XTM security appliances
Monitoring Examples
No specific object/table names were provided in the source data for this MIB, so concrete instances cannot be cited; based on its description, an administrator would typically poll its system-info objects for hardware model, firmware/software version, and license status to confirm the appliance is running supported software and a valid license before correlating that with data from the companion client, statistics, or IPsec tunnel MIBs.
What Can Be Monitored
- hardware model/inventory
- software/firmware version
- license status
