7. Obtain the specific identifier for the element that will be modified. To get the identifier, click the
swFwThresholdTable and swFwThresholdEntry directory, and run a get operation on
swFwName. A list of elements appears in which each element is preceded by an identifier.
Remember the numeric portion of the identifier, which appears before the “==>” symbol. You
can scroll through the list to find the numeric identifier for the element in which you are
interested.
Figure 28 shows a sample screen.
For detailed descriptions of the SNMP fields in both telnet and Web Tools, see the Fabric OS
MIB Reference.

In this example, 83.1 is numeric identifier for the element referenced as resFlash000.
8. Traverse the fields beneath swFwClassAreaTable and swFwThresholdTable, appending the
