Each parameter has a unique object ID assigned to it. This can then be used to query the particular parameter.
In order to obtain the object ID (OID) of the particular parameter you want to monitor, you can use "MIB browsers" to manually query
which parameters are supported by a certain network device.
The following table lists some important parameters that could be monitored using SNMP.
More information on SNMP can be found on the websites mentions below:

This document also lists "requests for comments" (RFC) documents describing the parameters in more detail, e.g
