Repeater Private agent
The repeater hub agent monitors and manages all repeater devices within the Wave system. The
Wave implementation is based on Vertical Communication’s private repeater MIB
(repeater_private.mib). The private MIB module combines the syntax of SNMP version 1
definition for IEEE 802.3 repeaters (RFC 1516) with the additional features defined in the
SNMP version 2 (RFC 2108). The structure of the private MIB closely follows that of the
definition in RFC 2108, with the relative tree structure of the variables unchanged.
Note: For descriptions of each statistical variable in the repeater hub agent tables, see ASN.1
definitions in the Vertical Communications private repeater MIB (repeater_private.mib).
The repeater private MIB consists of four main groups. Descriptions and the table contained in
these groups are identified in Table 0-2.
