Administrator's Guide v4.1.1 Manual

Brocade MIB structure
Each MIB variable is assigned an object identifier (OID). The OID is the sequence of numeric labels on
the nodes along a path from the root to the object. For example, as shown in the figure below, the Entity
MIB OID is:
1.3.6.1.2.1.47
The corresponding name is:
iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.entityMIB
The other branches are part of the standard MIBs, and the portions relevant to configuring SNMP on a
Brocade switch are referenced in the remainder of this chapter.

Access to MIB variables
You can use a MIB browser to access the MIB variables: all MIB browsers perform queries and load
MIBs.
Once loaded, MAX-ACCESS provides access levels between the agent and management station. The
access levels are described in the following table.
