MIB-II and a specialized MIB called G3-MIB. Within the DEFINITY G3
environment, MIB refers to the system and snmp groups from MIB-II
plus the entire G3-MIB.

Fault Management resides on the NMS and provides functionality beyond
the standard set of components: the ability to manage a PBX as a node on
the network.
