Optional parameters for MIB browser URLs
When you define a URL that starts the MIB browser, you can supply a number of additional optional parameters.
- domain
- The name of the IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition domain to use to obtain
the MIB and SNMP data. The value of this parameter is used to set the Domain
option menu in the Configuration Toolbar. Tip: To write a tool that opens the MIB browser from an Event Viewer, you can specify the name of the ObjectServer instead of the IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition. To do this, specify the parameter $selected_rows.ServerName where ServerName is the field in the Event Viewer event that specifies the name of the ObjectServer.
- host
- The IP address of the target device to be queried for SNMP data. This value is used to populate the Host field in the SNMP Query Toolbar.
- variable
- The MIB object to query. This value can be the OID of the MIB object, for example 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3 or it can be the name of the MIB object, for example sysUpTime. This value is used to populate the OID field in the SNMP Query Toolbar.
- resultsOnly
- Specifies whether the MIB browser is started in full mode or results-only
mode. Specify one of the following options:
- true: The MIB browser opens in results-only mode.
- false: The MIB browser is opened in full mode.
If you supply the domain, host,
and variable parameters, the MIB browser is started,
automatically performs the SNMP query specified by these parameters
and displays the results in the SNMP Query Results area.
The type of SNMP query varies depending on the value of the variable
parameter
