8.1.1 FastManage MIBs

FastManage utilizes the RFC 1517 MIB for SNMP compliance. FastManage also uses the repeater.mib and the private.mib for the hub line, as well as the parallel.mib, serial.mib, and private.mib for the print server line.

8.1.2 FastManage Requirements

FastManage runs as a stand-alone tool (i.e., no other TCP/IP packages required). However, if a system has any Winsock™ compatible TCP/IP stacks (i.e., PC/TCP™, Chameleon™, or LAN Workplace™) or Microsoft TCP/IP stack, it can co-exist with these packages. FastManage runs on the top of public domain packet drivers as well as on the top of ODI drivers.
