SEHI100TX MIB Structure

information in the other components, even if those components have different community names; the Chassis MGR community names are the same as those assigned via Local Management.

SEHI100TX LIM

The SEHI100TX LIM, or Local Management, component contains the objects that provide out-of-band management via the Console port on the SEHI100TXÕs front panel. No objects from this component are used for remote management.

Repeater One

The Repeater MIB component controls all repeater functionality on the SEHI100TX. These functions include port count, port enable/disable, port status, board number, repeater statistics (packets, bytes, collisions, errors, etc.), protocol counts, and frame sizes; also included are the alarm, redundancy, source addressing, and trap functions. Note that the default community names for the Repeater MIB component will always be different from the default names assigned to all the other components.

SEHI100TX Host Services

The Host Services MIB component contains the objects that provide the SEHI100TX with its IP functionality Ñ essentially, those functions which allow the SEHI100TX to operate over a network Ñ including functions such as ping, Telnet, and TFTP.

SEHI100TX IP Services

The IP Services MIB component is not currently used by the SEHI100-TX, but is reserved for future use.

A Brief Word About MIB Components and Community Names

In the original version of the component MIB architecture, each MIB component is protected by its own set of user-conÞgurable Read-Only, Read/Write, and Super- User community names. These names determine the level of access that will be granted to the information controlled by each individual component. For these devices, the central point of access for remote management is provided by the Chassis MGR MIB component Ñ that is, if you deÞne your device icon or launch a management application using the read-only, read/write, or super-user community name assigned to the Chassis MGR MIB component, your SPMA application is granted the appropriate level of access (read-only, read/write, or super-user) to all of that deviceÕs MIB information Ñ even if the other MIB components have different community names (as will occur of necessity if the SEHI100TX has multiple Repeater MIB components, each of which must have a unique set of community names).
