I've got some mibs compiled into MCC for an Artel galactica bridge. This gives me access to the Artel extensions, but my customer wants to see some 802.1d information, which is accessible via the agent on the bridge. Is the 802.1d mib built into MCC, and if not, do I also need to compile the bridge extensions to MIB-II along with the 802dot1d extensions, into mcc? -Craig

6000.1 | Load bridge MIB | BIKINI::KRAUSE | CSC Network Management/Hubs | Fri May 20 1994 08:41 | 4 |
You need to load BRIDGE_STD_MIBDEF.TXT. This should give you all the variables you need. 802.1d is Spanning Tree. *Robert | |||||
6000.2 | What would be the difference between Bridge and 802.1d | NYOS02::PLUNKETT | Fri May 20 1994 13:30 | 16 | |
After doing a little reading of "The Simple Times", and browsing the notes in the SNMP conference, I am under the impression that 802.1d and the Bridge MIB are one and the same, according to RFC1493. RFC1493 obsoletes RFC1286, which is described as the Bridge MIB, and I compiled a MIB provided by Chipcom referencing RFC1286, that gave me my Spanning Tree information, which is really what the customer was looking for. So for my purposes, I got what I needed, but would still like to know what the difference would be between the two items mentioned in the previous note. I made the *mistake* of describing RMON to my customer, and now he's thinking about adding that MIB. I'd better stay on my toes with this MIB stuff. -Craig |
