Accessing the Management
Information Base
The management information base (the MIB) is the repository of all
variables gathered and used by the router, as well as accessible to the
router’s console and to other devices in the network using SNMP. The
MIB’s hierarchical structure can be represented as an inverted tree, such
as the one shown on the next page for the buffers (‘‘buf’’) object.
