Table 6.1: WeOS control of SNMP features.
❼ can send SNMP SET messages to the SNMP agent to modify the device set-
tings (or issue commands such as ’reboot’).
❼ can get notified by an agent when specific events occur, such as link down
event, via SNMP TRAP messages.
The objects manageable via SNMP are defined in a management information base
(MIB). The WeOS MIB support aims at providing SNMP management primarily via
standard MIBs to enable easy integration with existing SNMP management tools.
In addition, WeOS includes an enterprise MIB (private MIB) to provide access to
MIB objects not available via the standard MIBs.

SNMP MIB objects from a managed station.
