Using Profile Windows
If you frequently access a fixed set of variables, place them in a profile
for easy access and management. The profile window is used to define
or access commonly referenced variables. The functions provided by
this window allow you to modify the selected variable set, and fetch or
store values as a set.
The Profile Window provides a subset of MIB access commands, of which Object Information and Remove Object
apply specifically to the current item in the Profile window. In
additon to adding and removing objects, you can also execute get
and set requests from this menu. Object Information opens a
dialog box that displays object values, including the MIB name,
along with object label, ID, range, index and type. The dialog
box allows you to modify the value of the current variable or to
change the index for a table variable.
To create a profile:
1. Select New Profile from the File menu.
2. Verify the default entries in the MIB Browser dialog box. Select
the network protocol used for the target device as UDP or IPX.
Change the target address and community string if required.
3. Press OK to continue or Cancel to abort the operation. The
Profile window will open as shown
below.
