Description: Manages ZyXEL DNS resolver configuration including server addresses and domain search list settings.
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 ZYXEL-DNS-MIB?
ZYXEL-DNS-MIB is a ZyXEL proprietary MIB covering the DNS subtree, managing DNS resolver configuration such as configured DNS server addresses and the domain search list used by the device for name resolution. Its data is purely configuration-oriented, listing which DNS servers and search domains are set rather than exposing runtime query statistics or hardware sensors. In monitoring terms it is useful primarily for confirming that a device's name-resolution configuration software is set correctly -- for example verifying the expected primary/secondary DNS server addresses are configured -- which can help explain resolution failures elsewhere on the device, though it does not itself track hardware or process health. It has no apparent dependency on external standards beyond general SNMP SMI conventions, functioning as a ZyXEL-specific configuration tree. It is typically deployed on ZyXEL routers/gateways where administrators need to confirm or audit DNS resolver settings remotely. Engineers can download the ZYXEL-DNS-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ZYXEL-DNS-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
- ZyXEL router/gateway
Monitoring Examples
No object or table names were provided in sample_objects for this module, so specific polling targets cannot be confirmed from the given data. Conceptually, an operator would poll the configured DNS server address objects to confirm the device is pointed at the correct resolver, which would explain a device-wide name-resolution failure if the value is wrong or unset. Because sample_objects is empty, no invented object names are given here.
What Can Be Monitored
- configured DNS server addresses
- domain search list
