Introduction to fxos-mibs-fp1k.2.10.1.208.zip

The ​​fxos-mibs-fp1k.2.10.1.208.zip​​ contains Management Information Base (MIB) files for Cisco Firepower 1000 Series appliances running Firepower eXtensible Operating System (FXOS) 2.10.1.208. This package enables SNMP-based monitoring of hardware components, including chassis temperature, power supply units, and SPA interface counters, critical for enterprise network health checks.

Compatible with:

  • Firepower 1010/1120/1140/1150 appliances
  • FTD 6.6.1+ managed through Cisco Defense Orchestrator
  • SNMPv3 monitoring systems requiring OID extensions

Released on March 15, 2025, this MIB update addresses 14 monitoring gaps identified in Cisco Security Advisory 2025-ASV-007 for hybrid cloud deployments.

Key Features and Improvements

1. ​​Enhanced Environmental Monitoring​​

  • Adds 12 new OIDs for real-time tracking of:
    • Power over Ethernet (PoE) load thresholds (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.902.1.2.2)
    • SSD health metrics (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.719.1.1.5)
    • Thermal margin alerts for ASIC components

2. ​​RFC 4188 Compliance​​

  • Implements ENTITY-MIB v2 (RFC 4133) for:
    • Inventory tracking of replaceable components (SPAs, SFPs)
    • Serial number validation against Cisco Smart Licensing database

3. ​​Security Hardening​​

  • Removes deprecated SNMP communities (public/private) from default templates
  • Enforces SHA-256 authentication for SET operations

4. ​​Performance Optimization​​

  • Reduces MIB tree traversal latency by 38% through OID compression
  • Supports bulk GET operations for 500+ concurrent OID queries

Compatibility and Requirements

Component Supported Specifications
​​Hardware​​ Firepower 1000 Series (Gen3+)
​​FXOS Version​​ 2.10.1.208 or later
​​SNMP Managers​​ Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10+, SolarWinds NPM 2024.2
​​Memory​​ 8GB RAM minimum (16GB recommended)
​​Storage​​ 500MB free disk space

​​Known Limitations​​:

  • Incompatible with SNMPv1 monitoring systems
  • Requires manual OID mapping when upgrading from MIB packages <2.9.5

Obtaining the MIB Package

Certified network administrators can acquire ​​fxos-mibs-fp1k.2.10.1.208.zip​​ through Cisco’s Software Download portal after verifying Smart License entitlements. Verified partners like IOSHub provide SHA-256 validated copies (checksum: e3b0c44298fc1...9ab4d6) with optional technical validation for a $5 service fee.

Note: Always verify package integrity using sha256sum before deployment. Refer to Cisco FXOS MIB Implementation Guide (2025 Edition) for SNMPv3 configuration templates.

Structured Compliance Mapping

This MIB package aligns with three critical monitoring frameworks:

  1. ​​ISO/IEC 27001​​ – Asset management controls (A.8.1.1)
  2. ​​NIST SP 800-53​​ – System monitoring (SI-4) and Vulnerability scanning (RA-5)
  3. ​​PCI DSS 4.0​​ – Requirement 10.6 (Audit log integrity)

For complete OID mappings, consult Cisco’s Firepower SNMP Compliance Handbook (Document ID: FPR-MIB-2025).
