Retrieving Information from a MIB
To retrieve information from a MIB, the following information is required:
SNMP version
SNMP community name—
public
or
private
The IP Address of the Dell Mobility Controller
The OID of the MIB value you want to monitor
In addition, MIB files can be placed in the appropriate disk location to assist the user in locating desired
OID values for monitoring. If MIB files need to be acquired, contact the support site.
It is assumed that the workstation is connected to the Dell controller and that a MIB browser is available.
For most applications, the
root
of the MIB must be included in the OID—the OID begins with a decimal
point as shown below.
