About the SNMP MIB

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information Base (MIB) is for library customers, partners, third-party management software developers, and other parties interested in integrating the Dell™ PowerVault™ ML6000 with commercial management frameworks. The Dell PowerVault ML6000 supports SNMP by publishing a MIB that can be queried to obtain the status of the library and many of its individual components.

All MIB variables are supported for remote management of the ML6000. For more information about the MIB, see the Dell PowerVault ML6000 Basic SNMP Reference Guide.

For instructions on how to download the SNMP MIB, see Downloading the SNMP MIB.

After downloading the SNMP MIB, you can install it on your management application. Contact your network management application vendor for information on integrating a MIB with an SNMP management application.

NOTE: For information about configuring SNMP settings, such as configuring SNMP versions, authentication traps, and the community string, see About SNMP Settings. For information about registering external management applications to receive SNMP traps, see About SNMP Trap Registration.
