The following prompt is displayed:

Enter Subtree Mask (Hex format):

6. Enter a subtree mask in hexidecimal format.

This is an optional parameter that is used to further refine the
value in the View Subtree parameter. This parameter is in binary
format.

The relationship between a subtree mask and a subtree is similar
to the relationship between an IP address and a subnet mask. The
subnet mask further refines the IP address. In the same way, the
OID table entry defines a MIB View and the subtree mask further
restricts a user’s view to a specific the column and row of the MIB
View. The value of the Subnet Mask parameter is dependent on
the subtree you select. For example, if you configure the View
Subtree parameter as MIB, ifEntry.0.3 has the following value:

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.0.3

To restrict the user’s view to the third row (all columns) of the
ifEntry MIB, enter the following value for the Subtree Mask
parameter

ff:bf
