• Enter an ‘=’ followed by the complete OID. This bypasses the OID

prepend specified above, enabling the user to digress from the

current MIB branch and access MIB leaves on other branches. If

the user enters =4.1.3, then OID 4.1.3 is requested.

• Press F9 to recall the last-specified OID, and then edit that OID as

desired.

3. Press the Return key.

If there is no instance of that OID, the message, “MIB NO INSTANCE”

will appear; otherwise, information about the corresponding MIB

leaf’s data type, length, and value appear.

5.9.4 GETNEXT

Use the GETNEXT command to view the MIB leaf numerically following a

specified OID.

1. Invoke GETNEXT by the on-screen selection method, or press the F8

key.

2. After “<GETNEXT> OID (=|F9)” appears, specify an OID by the same

methods used in the GET procedure:

• Enter an OID minus the OID’s prepend.

• Enter an ‘=’ to bypass the OID prepend, and follow with a

complete OID.

• Press F9 to recall the last-specified OID, and then edit that OID as

desired.

3. Press the Return key.

5.9.5 STEP

STEP functions like GETNEXT, scrolling through a MIB leaf by leaf, but it

does not ask the user to specify an OID. Instead, it simply recalls the

last-specified OID and gets the next one, allowing the user to display one

OID after another, simply by pressing Return to advance each step.

1. Invoke STEP by the on-screen selection method and press Return.

SNMP Tool gets the next object.

2. Repeatedly press Return to display subsequent objects. This can be

repeated until all sublayers of the MIB have been shown.
