MIB Viewing

You can use any SNMP version 1 compatible management console to view the Microsoft Exchange Server MIB. Your management console may need to load the MIB file for the object descriptions. This file is available on the Microsoft Exchange Server compact disc in Support\snmp\platform\exchange.mib.

Understanding Microsoft Exchange Server Object IDs

The following are Microsoft Exchange Server object IDs. The numerical representation of the object ID is shown following the ID.

MTA

MTA values are accessed using the following object ID.

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.microsoft.software. systems.os.winnt.performance.MSExchangeMTA .1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.1

MTA Connections

The groups that the MTA services support the following object ID.

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.microsoft.software. systems.os.winnt.performance.MSExchangeMTA .1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.2.x

where x is the index of the group.

Internet Mail Service

Internet Mail Service values are accessed using the following object ID.

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.microsoft.software. systems.os.winnt.performance.MSExchangeIMC .1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.3

Using the Snmputil Utility

You can also use the snmputil utility available with the Windows NT Resource Kit to view a MIB.

The following displays the current value for the mtaInboundBytesTotal object variable for the Microsoft Exchange Server MTA.

snmputil get <server name> public .iso.org.dod.internet.private.

The following displays the current value for the mtaOutboundBytesTotal object variable for the Microsoft Exchange Server MTA connection to the private information store.

snmputil get <server name> public .iso.org.dod.internet.private.

The following returns the current value for the imsQueuedMTS-IN object variable for the Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Service.
