Configuring SNMP settings

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) facilitates the exchange of management
information between network devices. SNMP uses Management Information Bases (MIBs) to
manage the device configuration and monitor Internet devices in potentially remote locations. MIB
information accessed via SNMP is defined by a set of managed objects called object identifiers
(OIDs)
. An object identifier (OID) is used to uniquely identify each object variable of a MIB. The
access point Web download package contains the following 2 MIB files:

BROCADE-CC-BR51XX-MIB-2.0.mib (standard MIB file)

BROCADE-BR51XX-MIB.mib
