To use AXIS 1440 SNMP support, you must have the following:
• A host that supports FTP on which to run the NMS software.
• A version of NMS software that allows you to install private
enterprise MIBs.
Follow these steps to add the AXIS MIB to your NMS software:
1. Log in to the AXIS 1440 using FTP.
2. Upload the MIB file /snmp/axis.mib to the NMS host.
3. Install the AXIS MIB. (See the instructions in your NMS software
documentation.)
The AXIS MIB The AXIS MIB contains a large number of objects that can be
categorized as follows:
• Menu objects - used for viewing and changing the AXIS 1440
configuration from the NMS program. See Appendix B - The
Parameter List for information about parameters.
• Printer status and unit administration objects - used for
monitoring AXIS 1440 print jobs and storing parameter changes.
• Trap objects - used for alarms associated with error conditions.

text editor.
