D-View 5.1 User’s Guide Step 7 Figure 54 Managing SNMP Devices Without a Management Module Background on MIBs The Management Information Base (MIB) refers to various information describing the physical and logical characteristics of an SNMP device.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide information, called MIB objects, are kept in an SNMP device, where they can be readily accessed and modified by the device agent at the request of the network administrator. Basically, management is achieved through transactions between the SNMP agent on the device and the management console. The management console sends SNMP request packets to the agent, which in turn complies by sending response packets.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide When the management console needs to modify the value of a particular MIB object, it sends a SET request to the device SNMP agent and the numerical representation of the target MIB object followed by the new value. For example, if the management console wants to assign a new name to a device, it sends a SET request to the device SNMP agent followed by the numerical representation of the sysName MIB object, which is 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide MIB Browser When you need to manage a SNMP device without a plug-in module in the D-View platform use a D-View supported MIB browser with the associated MIBs. Right-click on the chosen icon and you will see a “Properties” item on the pop-up menu. Click it and a dialog box will appear with an area listing many MIBs with checkboxes. Select which MIBs the device supports. Then click OK. Go back to the work area, right-click on the icon again. Select “MIB browser.

D-View 5.1 User’s Guide Figure 61 MIB Compiler The MIB Compiler provides another way to manage SNMP devices without a management module. It compiles an original Management Information Base (MIB) textual file into a system recognized format and loads it into a database. It converts a MIB into a graphic tree view. A node of the tree represents an object in the MIB. The relationship between nodes of the tree reflects OIDs of corresponding objects in the MIB.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide ♦ Module to which the object belongs ♦ Syntax ♦ Access limit ♦ Status ♦ Description, and so on. The compiler can communicate with a remote device (bridge, switch, or router) to get the current value or to set a new value for the MIB object of interest. This is achieved by sending SNMP requests and receiving SNMP responses to get/set the value of the object of the MIB, which resides in an SNMP enabled device.

D-View 5.1 User’s Guide RMON Alarm Alarm Group The Alarm Group periodically takes statistical samples from variables in the probe and compares them to previously configured thresholds. If the monitored variable crosses a threshold, an event is generated. A hysteresis mechanism is implemented to limit the generation of alarms. This group consists of the alarmTable and requires the implementation of the event group.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide if the first sample after this entry becomes valid is greater than or equal to this threshold and the associated alarmStartupAlarm is equal to risingAlarm(1) or risingOrFallingAlarm(3). After a rising event is generated, another such event will not be generated until the sampled value falls below this threshold and reaches the alarmFallingThreshold.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Sample Type – The method of sampling the selected variable and calculating the value to be compared against the thresholds. If the value of this object is absoluteValue(1), the value of the selected variable will be compared directly with the thresholds at the end of the sampling interval.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide ♦ ♦ ♦ Rising Event – The index of the eventEntry that is used when a rising threshold is crossed. The eventEntry identified by a particular value of this index is the same as identified by the same value of the eventIndex object. If there is no corresponding entry in the eventTable, then no association exists. In particular, if this value is zero, no associated event will be generated, as zero is not a valid event index.
D-View 5.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide RMON Event The Event Group controls the generation and notification of events. Each entry in the Event Table describes the parameters of the event that can be triggered. Each event entry is fired by an associated condition located elsewhere in the MIB – in the case of this software utility, the Alarm Group.

D-View 5.1 User’s Guide OSPF OSPF (RFC 1850) OSPF is a powerful routing protocol, equipped with features to handle virtually any configuration requirement that might reasonably be found within an Autonomous System. With this power comes a fair degree of complexity, which the sheer number of objects in the MIB will attest to. Care has therefore been taken, in constructing this MIB, to define default values for virtually every object, to minimize the amount of parameterization required in the typical case.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide The Interface Table and the Interface Metric Table together describe the various IP interfaces to OSPF.

DIAP D-View includes standard network management utilities such as TFTP and Ping Test user convenience. D-View 5.1 also includes D-Link’s proprietary administration utility DIAP. DIAP allows the user to have limited administrative access to D-Link broadband devices such as ADSL and ISDN routers, ADSL modems and Wireless routers.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide Figure 144 TFTP The Trivial File Transfer Protocol server can be activated under the Tools heading of the Main Menu. The TFTP server is active upon launch and can transfer files located on the host system to any SNMP device. File transfer information is displayed in the TFTP Server window. This information includes the IP address of the file recipient, the type and name of the file transferred and the status of the transfer. Error messages appear in the bottom field display.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide The D-View network management system comes with a TFTP server function that allows you to configure the management console as a TFTP server on the network. This function implements the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) to download image files from the management console (acting as a TFTP server) to the devices. TFTP is the second file transfer protocol under the TCP/IP suite that provides inexpensive, unsophisticated service.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide Figure 145 BOOTP Server Use the BOOTP server window to set up BOOTP service for BOOTP enabled devices. This utility is similar to the TFTP server except it does not require that the host system or D-View be running at the time of the transfer. D-View can assign other servers on the network to act as BOOTP servers or it may use the host system as the server.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide environment. Each network device attached to this environment must have a unique IP address in order to send and receive data packets from other network devices. Some network devices such as intelligent hubs and bridges come with EEPROMs for storing configuration values including IP addresses; others such as diskless workstations are incapable of storing such information, thus they depend on the BOOTP server for these values.
D-View 5.1 User’s Guide Figure 146 PING Test The D-View network management system provides a test facility that verifies whether or not the management console has good communication link with a particular device on the network. This facility implements the Packet InterNet Groper (PING) program for use on TCP/IP internets to test reachability of destinations. PING verifies connectivity of a device by sending ICMP echo request packets to it and then waits for the ICMP echo response packets from the device.
