Managing AMX switch objects with SNMP

Using SNMP, you can monitor and manage MIB (Management Information Base) objects specific to the AMX switch. Refer to Table 4.2 for a description of the AMX system MIB object groups.

Table 4.2: AMX System MIB Object Groups

Object Group	Purpose
amxAppliance	Provides general information about the AMX switch, including firmware and
	hardware revisions
amxAmiq	Provides a list of available IQ modules from the AMX switch
amxUserStation	Provides a list of user stations connected to the AMX switch
amxStats	Provides statistics on packets for each port (only available internally)
amxSnmp	Provides information on SNMP settings

Load the AMX-MIB file into your SNMP browser to start monitoring and managing AMX switch- specific objects. Once you have enabled the sending of traps on the AMX switch, these traps can be interpreted by the SNMP trap listener by using the trap-specific MIB files. The following table describes the MIB files required for the SNMP processing.

Table 4.3: AMX System MIB Trap Files

Trap File	Purpose
AMX-MIB	Used by the SNMP Browser/Manager to monitor/manage the AMX switch
AMX 5000-TRAP-MIB	SNMP traps for the AMX 5000 switch
AMX 5010-TRAP-MIB	SNMP traps for the AMX 5010 switch
AMX 5020-TRAP-MIB	SNMP traps for the AMX 5020 switch
