Loading Brocade MIBs

The Brocade MIB is a set of variables that are private extensions to the Internet standard MIB-II.

The Brocade agents support many other Internet-standard MIBs. These standard MIBs are defined

in RFC publications. To find specific MIB information, examine the Brocade proprietary MIB

structure and the standard RFC MIBs supported by Brocade.

BROCADE MIB FILES

The Brocade MIB files are as follows:

• BRCD_v5_0.mib

• SW_v5_5.mib

• FA_v3_0.mib

• FE_RFC2837.mib

• ENTITY_RFC2737.mib

• HA_v5_1.mib

BEFORE LOADING MIBS

Before loading Brocade MIB files, ensure that you have the correct version of SNMP for your Fabric

OS version (see Table 2).

MIB LOADING ORDER

Many MIBs use definitions that are defined in other MIBs. These definitions are listed in the

IMPORTS section near the top of the MIB. When loading the Brocade MIBs, see Figure 5 to ensure

any MIB dependencies are loading in the correct order.
