System Requirements

for SNMP

To use AXIS 1440 SNMP support, you must have the following:

A host that supports FTP on which to run the NMS software.

A version of NMS software that allows you to install private
enterprise MIBs.

Follow these steps to add the AXIS MIB to your NMS software:

1. Log in to the AXIS 1440 using FTP.

2. Upload the MIB file /snmp/axis.mib to the NMS host.

3. Install the AXIS MIB. (See the instructions in your NMS software

documentation.)

The AXIS MIB

The AXIS MIB contains a large number of objects that can be
categorized as follows:

Menu objects - used for viewing and changing the AXIS 1440
configuration from the NMS program. See Appendix B - The
Parameter List
for information about parameters.

Printer status and unit administration objects - used for
monitoring AXIS 1440 print jobs and storing parameter changes.

Trap objects - used for alarms associated with error conditions.

For technical details, you can view the MIB file (axis.mib) with any
text editor.
