Management Information Base

178
In short, SNMP is an application-layer protocol that facilitates the ex-
change of management information between network devices. The 700
Series Computer is such an SNMP-enabled device. Use SNMP to control
and configure the 700 Series Computer anywhere on an SNMP-enabled
network.
The 700 Series Computer supports four proprietary Management Infor-
mation Bases (MIBs) and Intermec Technologies provides SNMP support
for MIB-II through seven read-only MIB-II (RFC1213-MIB) Object
Identifiers (OIDs).
Note: You can only query these seven OIDs through an SNMP manage-
ment station.
The Management Information Base is a database that contains information
about the elements to be managed. The information identifies the manage-
ment element and specifies its type and access mode (Read-Only, Read-
Write). MIBs are written in ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation.1) — a ma-
chine independent data definition language. Note: Elements to be managed
are represented by objects. The MIB is a structured collection of such objects.
You will find the following MIB files either in the 700 Color Management
Tools portion of the Intermec Developer's Library CD or on the web via
http://www.intermec.com:
S INTERMEC.MIB
Defines the root of the Intermec MIB tree.
S ITCADC.MIB
Defines objects for Automated Data Collection (ADC), such as bar
code symbologies.
S ITCSNMP.MIB
Defines objects for Intermec SNMP parameters and security methods,
such as an SNMP security IP address.
S ITCTERMINAL.MIB
Defines objects for 700 Series parameters, such as key clicks.
