  • You can add Next X, where X represents the number of OIDs to return. The Cisco Buffers in the previous table of examples provides an excellent example of the Next X syntax.
  • Each OID can be fully qualified with the MIB Name, a colon, and the OID name. Or, you can provide only the MIB tree.

For common OID names that could exist in multiple MIBs, include the MIB Name when specifying the value. For example, system exists in RFC1213-MIB, HP-UNIX, INTEL-GEN-MIB, and the Apple Macintosh MIB, therefore specify the MIB when retrieving the value: RFC1213-MIB:system or HP-UNIX:system or INTEL-GEN-MIB:system.

Valid formats for the OID name are provided in the following table:

MIBName:OIDName
