Appendix D: MIBs and SNMP Traps
This appendix provides formatted information drawn from the Management
Information Bases (MIBs) written for Dell 2161DS-2/4161DS/2321DS
Remote Console Switches. Sections in this guide follow MIB groups and
provide explanation and definitions for the terms used to define MIB objects.
You can access MIB-11 and MIB databases while using IPv4 or IPv6 and can add
IPv4 or IPv6-specific traps.
MIB is a virtual database of managed objects contained within the SNMP
agent. It is a collection of objects that defines the properties of the managed
devices.
The Remote Console Switch MIB definitions use the structure described in
the following Request For Comments (RFCs).
RFC-1155-SMI
Describes the common structures and identification scheme for the
definition of management information for use with TCP/IP-based
Internets.
RFC-1212
Describes the format for producing concise and descriptive MIB
modules.
RFC-1213-MIB
Describes the Internet standard MIB-II for use with network
management protocols in TCP/IP-based internetworks.
RFC-1215
Describes the SNMP standardized traps and provides a means for
defining enterprise-specific traps.
The private Remote Console Switch MIB is represented by the object
identifier 1.3.6.1.4.1.10418.3, which include the subtrees dsProducts (1),
dsManagement (2), dsOEM (3), and SNMP Traps as shown in Figure D-1.
