MIB Notification Form: Notification Variables Tab

The MIB Notification form's Notification Variables tab enables you to view the SNMP trap information, if any, that can be sent by the selected MIB. In the following example, the IF-MIB's linkDown OID provides an SNMP trap. When this trap is generated, the ifIindex, ifAdminStatus, and ifOperStatus values are included in the SNMP trap text:

linkDown NOTIFICATION-TYPE
OBJECTS { ifIndex, ifAdminStatus, ifOperStatus }
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"A linkDown trap signifies that the SNMP entity, acting in
an agent role, has detected that the ifOperStatus object for
one of its communication links is about to enter the down
state from some other state (but not from the notPresent
state). This other state is indicated by the included value
of ifOperStatus."
