SNMP MIB support

The Business Policy Switch supports an SNMP agent with industry-standard
MIBs, as well as private MIB extensions, which ensures compatibility with
existing network management tools. The switch supports the MIB-II (RFC 1213),
Bridge MIB (RFC 1493), and the RMON MIB (RFC 1757), which provide access
to detailed management statistics. With SNMP management, you can configure
SNMP traps (on individual ports) to generate automatically for conditions such as
an unauthorized access attempt or changes in a port's operating status.
