7.2.1 Management Information Base (MIB) Files

MIB files are used for SNMP remote management of a unique device. A MIB file consists of a
tree of nodes called Object Identifiers (OIDs). Each OID provides remote management of a
particular function. These MIB files should be compiled in a user-supplied MIB Browser or SNMP
Network Monitoring System server. The following MIB files are associated with the
CDM-570A/570AL:
MIB File/Name
(where 'x' is revision letter)
FW10874-2x.mib
ComtechEFData MIB file
FW-0020760x.mib
CDM-570A MIB file
-or-
FW-0020761x.mib
CDM/R-570AL MIB file
FW-0020786x.mib
CDM-570A/570AL Packet
Processor MIB file
FW-0020762x.mib
CDM-570A Traps MIB file
-or-
FW-0020763x.mib
CDM/R-570AL Traps MIB file
FW10874-6x.mib
CDM/R-570AL BUC/LNB MIB file
FW10874-7x.mib
CDM/R-570AL BUC/LNB Traps
MIB file
FW10874-8x.mib
CSAT-5060 MIB file
FW10874-9x.mib
KST-2000A/B MIB file

7.2.2 SNMP Community Strings

CAUTION – In SNMP v1/v2c, the SNMP Community String is sent unencrypted in the
SNMP packets. Caution must be taken by the network administrator to ensure that
SNMP packets travel only over a secure and private network if security is a concern.
The CDM-570A/570AL uses Community Strings as a password scheme that provides
authentication before gaining access to the CDM-570A/570AL Agent MIBs. They are used to
authenticate users and determine access privileges to the SNMP Agent.
