Dell Remote Access Controller Out-of-Band MIB
The Dell Remote Access Controller Out-of-Band MIB (filename DELL-RAC-MIB.txt) provides management data that allows you to
monitor the Chassis Management Controller. This MIB also contains information on RAC legacy alerting. The following table describes
each Dell RAC Out-of-Band group and lists the MIB group number assigned to the MIB group. See the relevant section for more
information about the MIB objects defined in a MIB group.

Basic Terminology
It is important to have a good understanding of the key technical terms used in this guide. This guide provides definitions for all essential
terms used in describing the Server Administrator MIBs. For definitions on all essential terms and acronyms, see the Glossary available on
the Dell Support website at dell.com/support/manuals.
Frequently Used Terms in Variable Names
The following terms are frequently used in the name of a MIB variable:
Capability refers to the actions an object can perform, or to actions that can be taken by the object. Hot-pluggable is an example of a
capability. If a card is hot-pluggable, it can be replaced while a system is running. Capability settings refer to the capabilities of the object
that the user can select from and activate if desired. Capability settings allow users of the server administrator to predetermine how an
object behaves under specific conditions.
Settings are the conditions of a manageable object that determine what happens when a certain value is detected in a component. For
example, a user can set the upper critical threshold of a temperature probe to 75 degrees Celsius. If the probe reaches that temperature,
the setting causes an alert to be sent to the management console. Some settings, when reached, can trigger a system shutdown or other
response to prevent damage to the system.
State refers to the condition of an object that has more than one condition. For example, an object may be in a not ready or in an enabled
state.
Status refers to the health of an object or how the object is functioning. For example, the status of a temperature probe that is
measuring acceptable temperatures would be reported as normal. When the probe begins reading temperatures that exceed limits set by
the user, it reports a critical status.
