11.4 MIB Browser Settings
The Mib Browser can be used for MIB browsing and to view and operate on available data through an SNMP agent. The Mib
Browser allows configuration of various options needed for SNMP operations.
To set the various options, click the SETTINGS icon, or select the Edit -> Settings menu item. This brings up a dialog box
where the following options and their default values are set. The user can modify the default values as needed, as shown in
the following table.

11.5 SNMP Operations
The Mib Browser allows the user to do the typical SNMP operations, such as GET, GET NEXT, GET BULK and SET.
To perform the GET operation, the user has to load the MIB file, select the desired node, and click the GET icon or choose
the Operations -> Get option from the menu bar. To fully specify an object to an SNMP agent, both the Object ID (which
defines the type of object), and the instance (the specific object of the given type) need to be provided. From the MIB, the
Object ID can be obtained to which an instance needs to be added to completely identify the object of interest. For non-
tabular (or scalar) objects, this is simply an instance of 0 (for example, sysDescr.0). This need not be specified; the Mib
Browser adds it to the selected node. For tabular objects, the instance is defined by the MIB and is a sequence of one or
more variables (for example, ifInOctets.2 or tcpConnState.179.74.15.126.1192.225.226.126.197.80).
You also need to specify the hostname and community string of the SNMP agent you are talking to in the appropriate field.
To talk to a V3 agent, choose the Version3 from the choice box in the Settings dialog and also make sure that the v3
parameters are set in V3 Settings Dialog.
11.5.1 Multi-Varbind Request
Select the Display -> Multi-Varbind menu item from the View menu to view the Multi-Varbind panel. To do a multiple varbind
request, select the leaf node and append the instance, and then click Add. This adds the OID given in the Object Identifier
field and the Value given in the SetValue field both separated with a colon to the list. If a value is not given in the SetValue
field, the NULL value is appended. We can add multiple numbers of OIDs and values like this. Ensure that you check the
