Using the Bay Networks Router MIB

Bay Networks Router MIB Files
A collection of ASCII files (one per router entity) together describe the Bay
Networks router MIB. These files load automatically onto the Site Manager
workstation or PC when you install the Site Manager software. The Site Manager
software modules read these files during startup.
Site Manager installs these files at \wf\mibs on PCs, and at /usr/wf/mibs on UNIX
workstations. For example, the path to the PPP MIB definition file on a UNIX
workstation is /usr/wf/mibs/ppp.mib.
If you want to load these MIB files into a local MIB browser tool, first load the file
wfcommon.mib; otherwise, you may experience errors using the browser tool.
Compliance with Specifications
The Bay Networks router MIB complies with the standards described in the
following documents, with the exceptions noted in the “Implementation Notes
”
section:
• Concise MIB Definitions (RFC 1212)
• Management Information Base for Network Management of
TCP/IP-based Internets: MIB-II (RFC 1213)
• Structure and Identification of Management Information for
TCP/IP-Based Internets (SMI; RFC 1155)
• Information Processing Systems - Open Systems Interconnection -
Specification of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ISO 8824)
Caution:
If you want to open any MIB file with an ASCII text editor, do so
with read-only protection enabled. This should eliminate the possibility of
corrupting (overwriting) the contents of that file.
