SNMP device monitoring capabilities
SNMP provides the following device monitoring capabilities:
n Network statistics, defined in RFC 1213, MIB-II
n Port statistics, defined in RFCs 1316 and 1317
n Device information, defined in Digi enterprise MIB DIGI-DEVICE-INFO.mib
You can use this information to manage network performance, gather device statistics, and find and
solve network problems.
For more information on the statistics available through the standard RFCs listed above, refer to the
RFCs available on the IETF website (www.ietf.org). For enterprise MIBs, refer to the description fields
in the MIB text.
