10.1.4 Variable Binding (VarBind)

A VarBind is a sequence of two specific fields, an Object Identifier (ID) and the value for/from that Object ID. A
VarBindList is a simple list of these pairings.

Among the Event Properties employed, the following example highlights two new VarBinds for version 2 software:
Timestamp & Alarm Trigger.

10.2 Network Manager MIB Files

The SNMP network manager will require the following files: 1) Argus.MIB, 2) MIB_ii.MIB, and 3) SMI.MIB.

To obtain MIB files, logon to www.alpha.ca/downloads and select software. From the home page, this is located
under the right-most column entitled “Support.”

A password will be required to access these secure pages and may be obtained via Login (on the home page).
Select “Create New Account” and fill out the User Registration Form. Select “Save” upon completion and an Alpha
Sales Representative will contact you by e-mail to complete the process.

The MIB variables (in the file Argus.MIB) are as follows:
 Site Information
 System Information
 Battery Voltage
 Battery Amperage
 Load Voltage
 Load Amperage
 System Major Alarm
 System Minor Alarm
 Table of Numeric Values
 Table of String Values.

The Argus MIB file provides separate object
identifier (OID) for active and cleared alarm
traps.

Alarm status and signals are reconstructed
into tables and sub tables to allow for future
expansion while remaining backward
compatible with already defined alarms and
signals.

See 10.3.
