Viewing MIB Variables with OAM Variable Requests
These procedures are used to send OAM variable requests from the fiber
optic ports on local AT-CM Line Cards to remote OAM-compatible
devices. OAM variable requests are used to view the values of MIB
objects on remote devices. For background information, refer to “OAM
Variable Requests” on page 55.
Note
These procedures require that the local and remote AT-CM Line
Cards be set to the OAM visible mode.
Note
The AT-CM Line Cards do not support any of the MIB objects in the
portion of the MIB tree that variable requests can access. So
although the line cards can be used to send variable requests to
query other OAM-compatible devices for MIB values, they do not
respond to variable requests.
Menus
To send MIB variable requests from the menus:
1. From the Main Menu, select Module Status and Configuration to
display the Module Status and Configuration Menu shown in Figure 48
on page 128.
2. Select the local AT-CM Line Card whose remote OAM counterpart you
want to query with an OAM variable request. The Module
Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 53 on page 139.
3. Select Port A, the fiber optic port, on the line card to display the Port
Management Menu shown in Figure 54 on page 140.
4. From the Port Management Menu, select OAM Configurations to
display the OAM Configuration Menu shown in Figure 89 on page 204.
5. From the OAM Configuration Menu, select Send OAM Variable
Request. The prompt in Figure 102 is displayed.
