Accessing MIBs

MIB files for all modules can be downloaded directly from any SEL-MCP3 frame. MIBs are generated on a per-device basis. For example, if there are three SEL-ENC2 modules in a frame, only one of the three MIBs is required, assuming all of the modules are using the same version of software. If the frame includes multiple modules of the same type, but different software versions, the module with the latest version should be used to generate the MIB.

If an older MIB is used with newer firmware (for example, an older version of firmware was used instead of the latest firmware), the new parameters added to the new version will not be available on the MIB, and thus, will not be accessible via the MIB.

Before downloading module MIBs, you must first download the InfrastructureNetwork.mib file. Copy the following into a browser to access the InfrastructureNetwork.mib:

http://<IP address>/InfrastructureNetwork.mib

<IP address> is that of the primary controller in the frame

Once any MIB file is downloaded from the frame, you should rename it immediately to prevent overwriting.

To download a specific module MIB file, copy this line into a browser:

http://<IP address>/mib/slot<slot#>/snmp.mib

<IP address> is that of the primary controller in the frame

<slot#> is the slot in the frame, as seen from the front
