6.1 SCTE-HMS MIBs

The IDH4 Series remotely reports power supply data and alarms using the Simple Network Management

Protocol (SNMP) over the DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specication) communications

standard. The IDH4 Series typically reports into a centralized Network Management System (NMS)

through a standard collection of data access points referred to as the SCTE-HMS Management

Information Bases (MIBs). The NMS polls the IDH4 Series for power supply data with the option of having

the IDH4 Series send SNMP traps in the event that an alarm condition occurs. In addition to the SCTE-

HMS MIBs, the IDH4 Series also supports the Alpha proprietary SNMP MIBs, which allows direct access

to the power supply as well as the ability to change transponder settings.

The following MIB (Management Information Base) les are required for the NMS or SNMP Manager to

collect data from the transponders. These les can be found on the Society of Cable Telecommunications

Engineers (SCTE) Web site www.scte.org. There are dependencies between MIB les so they should be

compiled in the order listed below:
