GETNEXT
Displays the OID following the current OID.
WALK
Allows the user to scroll through a section of the MIB leaf by leaf, from a
user-specified object identifier. Leaves are the sections of the OID
separated by periods. When a walk is initialized, the following categories
for each walk entry, or step are displayed.
• Specified OID – gives the number tag for that OID.
• Size – identifies the number of bytes it takes to store that object.
• Type – specifies the variable type of the object (e.g., int = integer).
• Data – displays what the object identifier represents.
RECALL-OID
Recalls, from memory, the last OID used.
STEP
Displays the MIB walk, step by step, giving the user time to view specific
leaves in detail.
CYCLES
Allows the user to specify the number of GETNEXT requests to cycle
through and how much time will elapse between each request.
REPEAT
Repeats the last GET command, allowing the user to monitor changes to a
specific OID.
