1Overview of the Brocade 6910 MIB

Introduction

The Management Information Base (MIB) is a database of objects that can be used by a Network

Management System (NMS) to manage and monitor devices on the network. The MIB can be

retrieved by a network management system that uses Simple Network Management Protocol

(SNMP). The MIB structure determines the scope of management access allowed by a device. By

using SNMP, a manager application can issue read or write operations within the scope of the MIB.

Obtaining and installing the Brocade 6910 MIBs

You can obtain the Brocade 6910 MIBs by downloading the file from Brocade Technical Support

site.

After obtaining the MIB, follow the instructions for your network management system to be able to
