EMM-E6 Ethernet User's Guide

THE SECURITY ACCESS LEVEL
EMM-E6 User’s Guide 9-3
CYCLES
Allows you to specify the number of GET NEXT requests to walk
through and how much time elapses between each request.
REPEAT
Repeats the Get command, allowing you to monitor any changes to a
specific OID.
9.3 THE SECURITY ACCESS LEVEL
Each MIB component that the EMM-E6 supports (e.g., RMON, DLM,
Repeater Rev. 4, etc.) has its own “password” for each possible level of
access (ranging from Basic Read-Only to Super-User).
Most MIB component community names default to “public.” However,
some components have specific community names (e.g., depending on
what devices reside in the EMM-E6 managed hub, Repeater Rev. 4 uses
separate community names for each channel in use – “channelA,
“channelB,” and/or “channelC”).
A complete list of Super-User community names (also called
community strings) resides in the Cabletron proprietary
chassis MIB. The MIB group chCompName provides the
names of the MIB components. The MIB group
chCompSUCommStr provides individual MIB component
community names/strings.
The component information corresponds numerically – by
last digit. In other words, each instance (i.e., OID element) in
the chCompName group indicates its match in the
chCompSUCommStr group.
