ZyWALL 2 and ZyWALL 2WE

•GetNext - Allows the manager to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a manager wants to retrieve all elements of a table from an agent, it initiates a Get operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations.

•Set - Allows the manager to set values for object variables within an agent.

•Trap - Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events.

20.2 Supported MIBs

The ZyWALL supports MIB II that is defined in RFC-1213 and RFC-1215. The focus of the MIBs is to let administrators collect statistical data and monitor status and performance.
