MIB
<networking> (MIB) A database of managed objects acessed by
network management protocols. An SNMP MIB is a set of
parameters which an SNMP management station can query or
set in the SNMP agent of a network device (e.g. router).
SNMP has two standard MIBs. The first, MIB I, was
established in RFC 1156, was defined to manage
TCP/IP-based internets. MIB II, defined in RFC 1213, is
an update.
Standard minimal MIBs have been defined, and many hardware
(and certain software, e.g. DBMS) providers have developed
private MIBs in ASN.1 format allowing them to be compiled
for use in a Network Management System. In theory, any
SNMP manager can talk to any SNMP agent with a properly
defined MIB.
