AT&T OneVision DEFINITY G3 Fault Management Installation And Integration Manual page 15

Overview
DEFINITY G3 PBXs. Typically, there is one agent for each managed
object. However, the OneVision DEFINITY G3 Proxy Agent can support
up to a maximum of fifteen DEFINITY G3 PBXs. The exact number of
PBXs the DEFINITY G3 Proxy Agent can support depends on the
customer's system configuration and networking capability.
A Management Information Base (MIB) resident on the agent and on the
NMS
The MIB is a virtual data store used to transfer all information and
commands between the NMS and the agent via the SNMP. MIB-II is a
standard industry-wide MIB. The OneVision applications use two
groups from MIB-II and a specialized MIB called G3-MIB. Within the
OneVision DEFINITY G3 environment, MIB refers to the system and
snmp groups from MIB-II plus the entire G3-MIB.
One (or more) network management stations, where the management
functions are performed using network management system (NMS)
software
In this case, the NMS is AT&T OneVision.
The OneVision DEFINITY G3 Fault Management product 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.
