What is a characteristic of the MIB?
- The OIDs are organized in a hierarchical structure.
- Information in the MIB cannot be changed.
- A separate MIB tree exists for any given device in the network.
- Information is organized in a flat manner so that SNMP can access it quickly.
Explanation: SNMP set, get, and trap messages are used to access and manipulate the information contained in the MIB. This information is organized hierarchically so that SNMP can access it quickly. Each piece of information within the MIB is given an object ID (OID), that is organized based on RFC standards into a hierarchy of OIDs. The MIB tree for any given device includes branches with variables common to many networking devices and branches with variables specific to that device or vendor.
