The NonStop SNMP Environment
SNMP Naming Scheme
SNMP uses a hierarchical model to identify objects. Every object in an SNMP
environment is identified by an object descriptor and an object identifier. Object
descriptors are logical names. Object identifiers are expressed in numeric dot notation.
For example, the System group of MIB-II is identified as:
system
1.3.6.1.2.1.1
As
Figure 1-4
shows, an object identifier is a sequence of integers resulting from
traversing a global tree. The object tree is composed of an unlabeled root connected
to labeled nodes. Each node in turn can have subordinate nodes of its own. A node
and its subordinate nodes make up a subtree. A node that has no subordinates is
referred to as a leaf object.
