Executive Summary
The Common MIB defines common information about Network Elements (NEs). This includes administrative information such as name, ID, model number, serial numbers vendor, and location; health indicators such as status and service state; and functional information such as power level and frequency range.
Scope
The Common MIB contains information that is applicable to all HMS network elements, including but not limited to, transponders, line monitors, amplifiers, fiber nodes and power supplies. All HMS NEs must support the commonAdminGroup section. The other sections should be supported for transponders following [SCTE 25-1] and [SCTE 25-2] specifications, as appropriate.
