24.2.4 Canopy Enterprise MIB
For additional reporting and control, the Canopy Releases 3.2.5 and later provide the
Canopy Enterprise MIB, which extends the objects for any NMS that uses SNMP
interaction. This MIB comprises five text files that are formatted in standard ASN.1
(Abstract Syntax Notation One) language.
To use this MIB, perform the following steps.
Procedure 43: Installing the Canopy Enterprise MIB files
1. On the NMS, immediately beneath the root directory, create directory
mibviewer.
2. Immediately beneath the mibviewer directory, create directory canopymibs.
3. Download the following three standard MIB files from
http://www.simpleweb.org/ietf/mibs
into the mibviewer/canopymibs directory
on the NMS:
◦ SNMPv2-SMI.txt, which defines the Structure of Management Information
specifications.
◦ SNMPv2-CONF.txt, which allows macros to be defined for object group,
notification group, module compliance, and agent capabilities.
◦ SNMPv2-TC.txt, which defines general textual conventions.
4. Move the following five files from your Canopy software package directory into
the mibviewer/canopymibs directory on the NMS (if necessary, first
download the software package from http://www.motorola.com/canopy
):
◦ whisp-tcv2-mib.txt (Textual Conventions MIB), which defines Canopy
system-specific textual conventions
◦ WHISP-GLOBAL-REG-MIB.txt (Registrations MIB), which defines
registrations for global items such as product identities and product
components.
◦ WHISP-BOX-MIBV2-MIB.txt (Box MIB), which defines module-level (AP,
SM, and BH) objects.
◦ WHISP-APS-MIB.txt (APs MIB), which defines objects that are specific to
the AP or BH timing master.
◦ WHISP-SM-MIB.txt (SM MIB), which defines objects that are specific to
the SM or BH timing slave.
◦ CMM3-MIB.txt (CMM3 MIB), which defines objects that are specific to the
CMMmicro.
IMPORTANT!
Do not edit these MIB files in ASN.1. These files are intended for
manipulation by only the NMS. However, you can view these files
through a commercially available MIB viewer. Such viewers are listed
under Traps Provided in the Canopy 45-Mbps BH Module MIB on
Page 326.
