MIB (Management Information Base) is a formal description of a set of network objects that can be managed using [SNMP] (Simple Network Management Protocol). There is one MIB and one MIB only. Everything else, normally referred to as "MIBs", is MIB extensions. The current MIB definition is MIB-II as described in RFC1213 [http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1213.txt]. One of the commands [Scotty] supplies is "mib". Here's an example usage: puts "The human-readable name that corresponds to '$oid' is '[Tnm::mib name $oid]'." [[Is Scotty documentation URLable?]]
