9.8.3 SnmpMibs
In SNMP messages, management variables are used to describe the managed objects on
the device. To uniquely identify the managed objects on the device, SNMP uses a
hierarchical naming scheme to identify the managed objects The entire hierarchical
structure is like a tree. The nodes of the tree represent the managed objects, as
shown in the figure below. Each node can be uniquely identified by a path starting
from the root.
The management information base (MIB) is used to describe the hierarchical
structure of the tree. It is a set of standard variable definitions for the
monitored network device. In the above figure, managed object B can be uniquely
determined based on a string of numbers {1.2.1.1}, which form the object
identifier (OID) of the managed object.
