The AXIS MIB In order to make full use of the AXIS 5400 SNMP support, you are required to use NMS software that allows you to install private enterprise MIBs, like the AXIS MIB.
The AXIS MIB contains a large number of objects which may be categorized as follows:
•Menu objects - used for viewing and changing the AXIS 5400 configuration from the NMS program. Refer to B - The Parameter List, on page 139.
•Printer status and unit administration objects - used for monitoring AXIS 5400 print jobs and storing parameter changes permanently.
•Trap objects - used for alarms at various error conditions.
For technical details, you can view the MIB file (axis.mib) with any text editor.
The AXIS MIB is resident on the AXIS 5400 and can be downloaded directly from the print server to your NMS software using FTP.
Follow these steps to add the AXIS MIB to your NMS software:
1.Log in to the AXIS 5400 using FTP.
2.Download the MIB file /snmp/axis.mib to the NMS host.
3.Install the AXIS MIB according to instructions in your NMS software documentation.
