6 MIB Variable Window

When you select a menu item to view information from the SNMP agent, a MIB

variable window with tabs appears. In this window, you can view MIB variables
in several different styles, set a threshold on variables for monitoring, change
the value of the variables and change options.

The window has some common components regardless of the information

displayed. This section describes operations which are common for all such MIB
variable windows.

The MIB variable windows have several tabs, each of which displays variables in
different styles, such as tables, plot charts, and bar charts. You can quickly
change the view by clicking a tab.

Additionally, the MIB variable windows have a tab which is used to change the
values of the MIB objects, and a tab to configure options.

Note

- To change MIB variables, you must have configured the community string

for the SNMP 'Set' operation both in Device Manager and on the device.

Note

- The type of variables displayed determines which kind of tabs are

displayed and which are not. For example, chart tabs are not displayed when
you are only viewing string variables.

Note

- SNMPv3: There are times that the MIB Variable Window will only display

one row with the value column displayed as blank. This happens when the user
does not refresh the Panel Window after removing the read permission on the
MIB Group.

Note

- SNMPv3: Depending on the user's view access security settings, the values

of some MIB objects may not be displayed.
