	Table 6-7 MIB Variable Textual Definitions
Item	Description
Object ID	Dotted-decimal identifier for current variable, indicating its exact location in the database
	structure.
Type	Refers to the way the data can be accessed. This item is only meaningful for real variables.
	Acceptable values include “Read Only,” “Read/Write,” or “No Access.” Note that a Read-Only
	object does not support the “set” operation.
Status	Can be MANDATORY, OPTIONAL or DEPRECATED. In general, a mandatory object must
	be implemented, an optional object may be omitted, and a depreciated object may be taken out of
	a definition. However, according to grouping conventions as defined in the standards, objects may
	be grouped such that all of them are implemented, or omitted altogether. In such case these
	objects may have the status of MANDATORY but not be implemented without violating the
	rules.
Index	Index to current table entry. The IP address of the target device is commonly used as an index.
Value	The value of the current variable. Value type depends on the specific variable.
Range	Range of the variable in (x, y) format.
Size	Size of the string data in number of bytes.
Description	Text that briefly describes the use of the corresponding variable.

9.When you execute a Get Request (or double-click on an item in the MIB tree) or Get Bulk Request, the value of the selected variable(s) is retrieved from the managed device and displayed beneath the textual description. However, note that when the Get Next request is executed, the next variable actually retrieved may be several nodes away, so the ObjectID and Index entries are also displayed.
