Network Management: Principles and Practice
Management Data Base / Information Base
- Distinction between MDB and MIB
- MDB physical database; e.g.. Oracle, Sybase
- MIB virtual database; schema compiled into management software
- An NMS can automatically discover a managed object, such as a hub, when added to the network
- The NMS can identify the new object as hub only after the MIB schema of the hub is compiled into NMS software
