There are three principle requirements to use SNMP with the MDR Radio Stations.
1. A Management Station that runs a SNMP Management Software package that is installed on a
networked or stand-alone PC that can be connected to an Indoor Unit either using a serial
connection or an Ethernet connection. From the Management station, the agents within the
MDR Indoor Units can be configured or polled for information.
2. Agent: The agent accepts SNMP GET, SET or GET-NEXT commands from the Management
Application software and collects or adjusts information from the Indoor Unit's MIB.
3. Management Information Base (MIB): the MIB is a database that is accessed based on the OID
(object ID) the SNMP Manager has chosen. The MDR Indoor Unit used an Enterprise MIB and
a standard MIB (MIB II) to store or allow access to information relevant to the MDR Link.
