MIB R
EFERENCE
This appendix describes how the PRISM 4101 embedded SNMP agent conforms
to the RFCs and enterpriseSpecific Management Information Bases.
Generic MIB
Loading
Instructions The MIBs were written using the standard ASN.1 notation. Any standard SNMP
manager should be able to compile the MIBs. Although the exact procedure for loading
MIBs may vary from one platform to another, the following basic steps are the same.
1 The SNMP manager has a directory for MIBs. Copy the files DDS.MIB and
TXPORT.MIB into this directory. The MIBs are sent out on a DOS-formatted
diskette, therefore, a DOS2UNIX command may have to be used for UNIX
workstations (typical directories are snmp_mibs for OpenView

, bin for SunNet

Manager, and mibfiles for Castle Rock SNMPc

).
2 Start the SNMP manager if it is not already running. Select one of the menu
selections (or selection subheadings) that contains the SNMP MIB operations (this
is Options subheading for HP OpenView and Config subheading for SNMPc).
3 Choose the option for LOADING or COMPILING MIBs. You must specify which
MIBs to load. If the manager only allows one MIB to be loaded at a time, load the
file TXPORT.MIB before loading the DDS.MIB.
4 Once the manager has successfully loaded the MIBs, you are ready to manage the
TxPORT products. If you have any questions please call TxPORT Product Support.
