Supported MIB Browsers

After you have configured the SNMP settings, you need to enter the IP address of the STM in
the Management Information Base (MIB) browsers through which you want to query or
configure the STM. See the documentation of your MIB browser for instructions.
NETGEAR recommends the following MIB browsers for receiving the STM SNMP
notifications:
• MG-Soft
• SNMP
• Net-SNMP (Linux Text)
• SNMP Browser for KDE
The STM MIB structure is automatically downloaded by management stations. You should
start receiving notifications after you have enabled SNMP on the STM and added its IP
address into your MIB browsers.

Managing the Configuration File

The configuration settings of the STM are stored in a configuration file on the STM. This file
can be saved (backed up) to a PC, retrieved (restored) from the PC, or cleared to factory
default settings.
Once the STM is installed and works correctly, make a backup of the configuration file to a
computer. If necessary, you can later restore the STM settings from this file.
Description (or Subfield and Description)
