7.3 SNMP Interface
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet-standard protocol for managing
devices on IP networks. An SNMP-managed network consists of three key components:
• The managed device – This includes the CDM-625A Advanced Satellite Modem.
• The SNMP Agent – The software that runs on the CDM-625A. The CDM-625A SNMP Agent
supports both SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
• The user-supplied Network Management System (NMS) – The software that runs on the
manager.
7.3.1 Management Information Base (MIB) Files
MIB files are used for SNMP remote management of a unique device. A MIB file consists of a
tree of nodes called Object Identifiers (OIDs). Each OID provides remote management of a
particular function. These MIB files should be compiled in a user-supplied MIB Browser or SNMP
Network Monitoring System server.
The following MIB files are associated with the CDM-625A:
MIB File/Name

DistantEnd CDM-625A MIB
file
MIB file consists of a subset of the CDM-625A MIB with all OIDs used manage to
a distant-end CDM-625A. SNMP "gets" and "sets" are sent to the local CDM-625A
and EDMAC3 is used to communicate efficiently with the distant end modem.
