19 Appendix - Getting Started with MIBs
Using the EMS to manage their Media Gateway is strongly recommended due to the
efficient, comprehensive and user-friendly environment offered in the EMS.
However, a customer may opt for the alternative management method using the
Media Gateway’s MIB and utilizing a MIB Compiler and Browser such as those
provided by, for example, MGSOFT Corporation, accessible at URL 'http://www.mg-
soft.com/'. This section describes this alternative management method.
For a detailed description of the MIB structure and provisioning parameter tables, refer
to "SNMP Agent, of the Media Gateway" in the
Programmer’s User Manual ,
Document#: LTRT-914xx .
For information on using the MIB Compiler and MIB Browser, refer to the user
manuals accompanying these applications.

To manage the Media Gateway using the MIB Compiler and MIB
Browser, take these 9 steps:
1. Compile the Media Gateway’s MIB.
2. Save the compiled file.
3. Set the IP address of the remote Media Gateway.
4. Set the SNMP version V1 or V2. Note that the use of SNMP V2 allows use of the
bulk operations for operation efficiency.
5. Set the read and write community to: public and private respectively.
6. Load the compilation result file into the MIB browser.
7. To check that the Solaris™ system is working, use the ping command to solicit a
response from the Media Gateway. Continue if you get a response.
8. To check if the SC software is working properly, perform a get command on the
Media Gateway.
9. Start navigation of the MIB parameters.

This section provides the basic MIB navigation information necessary to modify
elementary settings of the Media Gateway’s components. The Media Gateway is
supplied with some pre-configurations. However, it is recommended to configure all
the read-write accessible parameters in the path:
