MIB Structure
This document lists and explains all parameters in the Allied Telesyn
Management Information Base (MIB) structure. A description and
possible values are provided to help you make the required changes to
your system. Please read the comments very carefully before changing
a parameter’s value.
What is a MIB? A Management Information Base (MIB) specifies what variables the
network elements maintain (the information that can be queried and set
by the manager). All variables are identified by object identifiers, a
hierarchical naming scheme consisting of long strings of numbers that
are normally abbreviated into a simple name, for human readability.
A MIB is structured like a tree. At the top of the tree is the most general
information available about a network. Each branch of the tree then
gets more detailed into a specific network area, with the leaves of the
tree as specific as the MIB can get.
