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’s download site contains the following MIB files supporting the access point:

Symbol-CC-WS2000-MIB-2.0.mib (standard MIB file)

Symbol-AP_MIB.mib

NOTE

The Symbol-BR7131-MIB.mib contains the majority of the information contained within the
Symbol-CC-BR7131-MIB-2.0.mib file. This feature rich information has proven reliable for use with
a Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point. The remaining portion of the Symbol-BR7131-MIB.mib
contains supplemental information unique to the access point feature set.

Use the table below to locate the MIB where the given feature can be configured.
