D.5 SNMP Interface
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application-layer protocol
designed to facilitate the exchange of management information between network devices.
The SLM-5650 SNMP agent supports both SNMPv1 and v2c.
IMPORTANT
For proper SNMP operation, the SLM-5650 MIB files must be used with the
associated version of the SLM-5650 base modem M&C. Please refer to the SLM-
5650 SW Release Notes for information on the required FW/SW compatibility.
D.5.1 Management Information Base (MIB) Files
MIB files are used for SNMP remote management and consist of Object Identifiers
(OID’s). Each OID is a node that provides remote management of a particular function. A
MIB file is a tree of nodes that is unique to a particular device.
There are three MIB files associated with the SLM-5650:
MIB File/Name Description
fw10874-2-.mib
ComtechEFData
MIB file
ComtechEFData MIB file gives the root tree for ALL Comtech EF Data
products and consists of only the following OID:
Name: comtechEFData
Type: MODULE-IDENTITY
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.6247
Full
path: iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).private(4).enterprises(1).comtechEFD
ata(6247)
Module: ComtechEFData
FW/11187-4D
SLM-5650 MIB file consists of all of the OID’s for management of the modem functions
FW/11187-5A
SLM-5650
Traps MIB file
Trap MIB file is provided for SNMPv1 traps common for base modems.
These MIB files should be compiled in a MIB Browser or SNMP Network Monitoring
System server.
Note: The SNMP agent supports both “SNMPv1” and “v2c”. The “Traps” file only
needs to be compiled if “SNMPv1” traps are to be used.
