The RBMS Plus requires the following standard SNMP MIBS to compile the MIBs below:
SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB
SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB
SNMP-TARGET-MIB
SNMPv2-SMI
SNMPv2-TC
ENTITY-MIB
The RBMS Plus supports the following SNMP MIBS:
SCTE 36 2002 (HMS028) Root MIB
SCTE 37 2002 (HMS072) Tree MIB
SCTE 38-1 (HMS026) Property MIB
SCTE 38-11 (HMS-114) Headend Ident MIB
SCTE 84-1 (HMS-111) HE Common MIB
pbtRootMIB Phoenix Root MIB
pbtBatteryAgentMIB Phoenix Battery Agent MIB
pbtSCMini.mib
pbtEntityStatusMIB Phoenix Extensions to the Entity MIB
These MIBS should be compiled in the order listed.
The battery agent MIB contains tables of objects for each string and jar. These tables contain name, status and control
objects as well as all of the voltage admittance and temperature readings. All of the settable objects are stored in
RBMS Plus nonvolatile memory.
The digital alarms are configured using the discreteAlarmEnable object in the discretePropertyTable. There are two
objects for each input. The first object (.1) is used to enable alarms on the low state of the input. The second object (.2)
is used to enable alarms on the high state of the input. Each alarm can be set to one of three states: Disabled(1),
EnableMajor(2) or EnableMinor(3). Major Alarms appear in red on the web page, and Minor Alarms appear in yellow.
The analog alarms are configured using the objects in the property table. There are four objects to set the thresholds
for each of the alarm capable object. Each alarm limit can be individually enabled or disabled.
6.2.
Community Strings
The community strings are configured from the Telnet interface described in the configuration section of this
document. The default community strings are set to “public”.
If the device does not respond to SNMP Requests or does not appear to send traps, confirm that the community strings
are set properly in the SNMP Manager.
6.3.
Traps
Whenever an alarm occurs, SNMP traps are sent to up to three trap receivers. The trap destinations are configured
from the Telnet interface described earlier in this document. The traps are defined in the He Common MIB. Each trap
includes a text field that describes the trap.
6.4.
MIB Browsers
SNMP devices are normally managed by a software system containing a SNMP Manager. The simplest method of
evaluating SNMP operation is with a MIB Browser. A free evaluation version of a MIB browser can be downloaded from
