The SNMP SMI

The following diagram shows the local of the SNMP MIB in the context of the overall OBJECT IDENTIFIER (OID) tree:

Thus the "TCP" subtree of object identifiers in the MIB starts with the prefix (OBJECT IDENTIFIER):

1.3.6.1.2.1.6

whilst the "System" subtree starts at:

1.3.6.1.2.1.1

This could also be written as:

{ iso org dod internet mgmt mib system }

or in a "hybrid" format:

{ iso(1) org dod 1 mgmt(2) mib 1 }
