SEHI100TX MIB Structure

NOTE

The set of community names you assign via Local Management are those which apply to the SEHI100TX Chassis MGR MIB component.

Newer versions of devices with this component-based MIB architecture have been simpliÞed somewhat; these devices support a single, global set of community names, with small modiÞcations added automatically to accommodate multiple instances of the same MIB component (such as network components). Again, deÞning your device icon or launching a management application with one of these global community names gives SPMA access to all MIB information.

Where community names may become an issue, however, is when you are using the MIBTree or any similar MIB-based tool (such as those provided by SunNet Manager or HP Network Node Manager) to access MIB information. For these kinds of tools, you must supply the precise community name assigned to the component that contains the information you want. For devices which support the original component-based MIB architecture Ñ such as the SEHI100TX, this means you must use the exact community name you have assigned to a speciÞc component to access that componentÕs MIB information. (Again, note that the SEHI100TXÕs Repeater components always have unique community names.) For devices which support the new global community names, you must make note of the automatic modiÞcations that are made for network components, and use those speciÞc community names when trying to access information stored in those components.

The MIB component descriptions provided above will serve as a roadmap for determining where the information youÕre interested in is located; you can use the SPMA Community Names tool (described in Chapter 3 of the SPMA Tools Guide) to determine whether your version of Þrmware supports the original component- based MIB architecture, or the new global community names. The Community Names tool also allows you to both view and set the community names which apply to your device.
