Management Information Base (MIB) 4-21
Management Information Base (MIB)
A MIB (Management Information Base) is an element used in
network management with SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) and a management station running a
management application, such as Hewlett Packard’s Open
View. The management application uses GETs and SETs to
get system information and set system environment variables.
The ADIC private MIB can be accessed via Ethernet and is
both a diagnostic and a configuration tool for the FCR200.
The following sections outline what MIB information is
available for each interface type on the ADIC MIB. For more
information on accessing the ADIC MIB, contact a support
representative.
MIB Fibre Channel Interface Information
Fibre Channel data reported includes frame and packet
information, upper layer protocol (ULP) type (FCP or IP), and
other Fibre Channel specific information. Draft MIBs for Fibre
Channel N_Ports and F_Ports are in the public domain.
The ADIC private MIB includes:
• Groups for Fibre Channel configuration
• Fibre Channel port physical table
• Fibre Channel port statistics
• SCSI-to-Fibre Channel mapping
• Fibre Channel-to-SCSI mapping
MIB SCSI Interface Information
The MIB gathers SCSI information for management purposes.
This specific MIB provides information about the following:
• Number of I/O operations per bus
• Number of disconnects
• Abort count
• Number of bus resets
• Vital Product Data (VPD) from Inquiry command for each
SCSI device
• SCSI configuration information
This information can be found in the SCSI Statistics Table,
SCSI Config Group, and the SCSI Product Data Groups of the
ADIC private MIB.
