SNMP Configuration on the Mobile Computer
In short, SNMP is an application-layer protocol that uses the exchange of
management information between network devices. The CN3 Computer is
such an SNMP-enabled device. Use SNMP to control and configure the
CN3 Computer anywhere on an SNMP-enabled network.
The CN3 Computer supports four proprietary Management Information
Bases (MIBs) and Intermec provides SNMP support for MIB-II through
seven read-only MIB-II (RFC1213-MIB) Object Identifiers (OIDs).
The Management Information Base is a database that contains information
about the elements to be managed. The information identifies the manage-
ment element and specifies its type and access mode (Read-Only, Read-
Write). MIBs are written in ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation.1) — a
machine independent data definition language. Note: Elements to manage
are represented by objects. The MIB is a structured collection of such objects.
Tap Start > Settings > the System tab > the Intermec Settings icon, then
tap to expand the SmartSystems Information option.
Note: Only query the seven OIDs through an SNMP management station.
