Canopy Enterprise MIB
pmp-0049 (September 2012)
3-5
Thus, the path to an object that is managed under MIB-II begins with the decimal string 1.3.6.1.2.1
and ends with the object identifier and instance(s), and the path to an object that is managed under the
Cambium Enterprise MIB begins with 1.3.6.1.4.1, and ends with the object identifier and instance(s).
Object Instances
An object in the MIB can have either only a single instance or multiple instances, as follows:
a scalar object has only a single instance. A reference to this instance is designated by .0, following
the object identifier.
a tabular object has multiple instances that are related to each other. Tables in the MIB associate
these instances. References to these instances typically are designated by .1, .2, and so forth,
following the object identifier.
Management Information Base Systems and Interface (MIB-II)
The standard MIB-II (Management Information Base systems and interface) objects are programmed
into the modules. To read this MIB, see Management Information Base for Network Management of
TCP/IP-based Internets: MIB II, RFC 1213 at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1213.html.
The MIB-II standard categorizes each object as one of the types defined in Table 16.
Table 16 Categories of MIB-II objects

interfaces
the network interfaces for which the module is configured.

(These messages flag IP problems and allow IP links to be tested.)
tcp
Transport Control Protocol information in the module (to control
and ensure the flow of data on the Internet).
udp
User Datagram Protocol information in the module (for checksum
and address).
Canopy Enterprise MIB
The Cambium Enterprise MIB provides additional reporting and control, extending 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.
