SNMP MIB files

If you want servers to notify the Network Management System (NMS) when alarms are triggered, you must deploy the SNMP MIB files and configure notification profiles.

Deploy the SNMP MIB files before configuring the notification profiles.

What are MIB files?

The Management Information Base (MIB) files allow the Network Management System (NMS) to monitor any device defined within the Recording system.

Specifically, Management Information Base (MIB) files enable the SNMP manager in the NMS to interpret SNMP trap messages sent from a managed server.

To interpret these trap messages, the SNMP manager must have access to the MIB file that describes the format and content of every trap that the server can send.

Supported SNMP versions

SNMPv1, SNMPv2, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 are supported.
