Downloading the MIB

SNMP exposes management data in the form of variables on the managed systems,
which describe the system configuration. The SNMP Management Information Base
(MIB) stored on each unit defines which information (variables) should be monitored.
The MIB may be downloaded from the unit as a zip file using the Web Browser
interface. These variables can then be queried (and set) by managing applications.
Please refer to the managing application documentation for compiling third-party
MIBs.
Note: The ZIP file is no longer protected with the password "Stoneham".
3.6 Director
Ericsson's Director Over-Air Control (OAC) system is available either as a standard
feature or as an option on all of the RX8000 IRDs, except for the RX8320 and
RX8330C. OAC is a subset of the Director facility and is a remote control protocol
which is used to access the units using Ericsson's nCompass Control System. An
Over-Air Software Download facility is also provided which allows the IRD software
to be upgraded without a network connection.
For more detailed information on Ericsson Director remote control, contact Ericsson.
