Set

Lets users with read-write and super-user authorization change modifiable 

MIB objects, using SNMP protocol. 

Get Next

Displays the OID following the current OID. 

Walk

Scrolls you through a section of the MIB leaf by leaf, from a 

user-specified object identifier. Leaves are the sections of the OID 

separated by periods. When a walk is initialized you will see the 

following categories for each walk entry, or step.

Specified OID - gives the number tag for that OID.

Size - identifies the number of bytes it takes to store that object.

Type - specifies the object’s variable type (e.g., int = integer).

Data - displays what the object identifier represents.

Recall-OID

Recalls, from memory, the last OID used. 

Step

Displays the MIB walk, step by step, giving you time to view specific 

leaves in detail.

Cycles

Allows you to specify the number of get next requests to cycle through 

and how much time will elapse between each request.

Repeat

Repeats the last Get command, allowing you to monitor changes to a 

specific OID.

Using SNMP Tools

SNMP Tools allows you access to valuable MIB information. You can get 

information about specific object identifiers (OIDs), edit the values of 

configurable OIDs, and request the OID numerically sequential to the 

originally requested OID.
