Chapter 6. SNMP Option
109
November 2001
Since the general collection of MIB's can also be organized in a similar
structure, under the supervision of the Internet Activities Board (IAB), any
parameter included in a MIB that is recognized by the IAB is uniquely
defined.
To provide the flexibility necessary in a global structure, MIB's are
classified in various classes (branches), one of them being the experimental
branch, another being the management (mgmt) branch, and yet another the
group of private (enterprise-specific) branch. Under the private enterprise-
specific branch of MIB's, each enterprise (manufacturer) can be assigned a
number, which is its enterprise number. The assigned number designates the
top of an enterprise-specific sub-tree of non-standard MIB's. Within this
context, CTC Union has been assigned the enterprise number 4756. Under
this scheme, the path to CTC Union’s Enterprise branch would be:
iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).private(4).enterprises(1).ctcu(
4756)
Enterprise-specific MIB's are published and distributed by their creators,
who are responsible for their contents. Specific information regarding the
CTC Union’s sub-tree is available from CTC Union’s Research and
Development Division.
The MIB supported by the ETU01-A SNMP Agent follows RFC
1158 (standard MIB-II).
