MIBs
A Management Information Base (MIB) is a virtual database that contains information that is used for
network management. Each managed device contains MIBs that define the properties of that device. A
separate MIB is provided for each defined property, such as the group of physical ports that are
assigned to a VLAN or the statistical data of packets that are transferred at a specific rate.
MIB objects, such as a MIB table or a specific element of data in a MIB table, are identified with Object
Identifiers (OIDs). The OIDs are designated by text strings and integer sequences. For example,
Aruba
and 1.3.6.1.4.1.14832 both represent the private enterprise node Aruba , as shown in Figure 1 on page
20 .
Aruba is the parent of most of the proprietary MIBs that are supported on Alcatel-Lucent OAW WLAN
Switches.
sysObjectIDs for the Alcatel-Lucent OAW switches are allocated from the Alcatel-Lucent MIB tree.
Alcatel-Lucent ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.6486 ) is also the parent of the Alcatel-Lucent proprietary AMAP protocol
MIB (see Chapter 20, “AMAP Protocol” on page 495 ).
The numerical string lists the nodes of the Aruba or Alcatel-Lucent enterprise MIB hierarchies, as
shown in
Table 3 .
Figure 1 illustrates the high-level hierarchy of the MIBs. This document only covers the enterprise
MIBs, objects designed to specifically support Alcatel-Lucent devices. Standard MIBs are not covered.
