Instruction Manual, VF-9000 Series
FEATURES & OPERATION
7
The following is the list of the MIB files that are required
to be installed on the SNMP Management system for a VF-
9000 system with VBC2-3G plug-in cards. Please contact
MultiDyne to obtain the most current versions of these files.
“MULTIDYNE-MIB.mib”
“VF-9000-MIB.mib”
“VF-9000-FRAME-MIB.mib”
“VF-9000-NODE-MIB.mib”
“VF-9000-GENERIC-CARD-MIB.mib”
“VBC2-3G-CARD-MIB.mib”
Basic Testing
SNMP Management Systems vary greatly in complexity,
capabilities, and cost. Operation of these systems is beyond
the scope of this manual but basic SNMP operation can
be verified using the de-facto Open-Source tool in every
Networking professionals toolkit: Net-SNMP. It is included
with most Linux distributions and is also available as a free
download for Windows http://www.net-snmp.org.
With Net-SNMP installed on a PC or Linux computer, copy
all the VF-9000 system MIB files listed above to the default
MIB directory used by Net-SNMP which is typically either
$HOME/.snmp/mibs or /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs
To test that the VF-9000 MIBs are installed in the correct
folder(s), open up a command line window and type the
following at the prompt:
snmptranslate -IR -Td -On VF-9000-FRAME-MIB::vf9000PSU1Voltage
The following response should be returned if the MIBs are
loaded properly on the computer:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.27334.2.1.2.1.3.1.3

DESCRIPTION
“The PSU1 voltage in mV.”
::= { iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) private(4)
enterprises(1) multidyne(27334) vf9000(2)
vf9000Objects(1) vf9000FrameMib(2)
vf9000FrameObjects(1) vf9000FrameHardwareTable(3)
vf9000FrameHardwareEntry(1) 3 }
Now an actual frame can be queried to obtain parameter
information. Below are some Net-SNMP command line
examples:
To “Walk” the entire VF-9000 Frame
(replace 192.168.1.249 with the IP Address of the frame, if
necessary):
snmpwalk -m ALL -Os -c public -v1 192.168.1.249 vf9000
To do the above, but send the output to a text file:
snmpwalk -m ALL -Os -c public -v1 192.168.1.249 vf9000 >
C:\temp\vf9000snmpwalklog.txt
To Walk just the VBC2 cards installed in the Frame
(replace 192.168.1.249 with the IP Address of the frame, if
necessary):
snmpwalk -m ALL -Os -c public -v1 192.168.1.249
vbc2G3CardMib
To get the voltage of Power Supply #1 in the frame:
snmpget -m ALL -Os -c public -v1 192.168.1.249
vf9000PSU1Voltage.1
To get the temperature of SFP #1 on card #2 in the frame:
(for other cards, replace the last # with the slot #)
snmpget -m ALL -Os -c public -v1 192.168.1.249
vbc2G3SFP1Temperature.2
DC INPUT MONITORING
DC input monitoring is done in every box individually. There
is a voltage monitor circuit on the frame controller. This will
in return report the status of the power input and the status
of the frame fan over SNMP or the IP interface as ordered by
the customer.
