MIBs and Network Management
The
Cisco MDS 9000 Family MIB Quick Reference
lists Cisco proprietary MIBs as well as many other
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard MIBs. These standard MIBs are defined in documents
called
Requests for Comments
(RFCs). To find specific MIB information, you must examine the Cisco
proprietary MIB structure and related IETF-standard MIBs supported by the Cisco MDS 9000 Family.
From the perspective of a network manager, network management takes place between two major types
of systems: those in control, called
managing systems
, and those observed and controlled, called
managed
systems
. The most common managing system is called a
network management system
(NMS). Managed
systems can include hosts, servers, or network components such as switches or intelligent repeaters.
CiscoWorks is an example of an NMS.
