Viewing PATROL SNMP MIB
This task describes how to check the SNMP information stored in a MIB. The dialog defaults to the BMC PATROL Agent MIB. However, if you know the computer name, listening port, community string, and OID (object identifier) of another process that uses SNMP, you can walk that process's MIBs.
This feature is primarily used to test that the BMC PATROL SNMP Master Agent is populating its MIB.
Before you begin
For detailed information about the BMC PATROL SNMP MIB, see the appendix, "PATROL SNMP MIB," in the PATROL Agent Reference Manual.
To View the SNMP Management Information Base for PATROL
