Management Information Base (MIB) 13-5
Figure 13-2 Example of an RMON MIB Counter Object
The displayed information includes these items:
■ The formal name of the counter is etherStatsPkts. (Ethernet, Statistics,
Packets)
■ The access is read-only
■ The number of the counter’s column in the table: 5
The name of the table in which the counter resides is 3CometherStatTable,
although this does not appear in the display.
You do not need to know the contents of every MIB object to manage a
network. Most network management applications, including Transcend
Enterprise Manager Software, make the MIB transparent. However, knowing
how different management features are derived from the MIB allows you to
better understand how to use the information that they provide.
