VMWARE-HEARTBEAT-MIB

AI MIB Summary

The VMWARE-HEARTBEAT-MIB enables VMware SNMP agents to actively notify management stations of host availability and connectivity status via reverse polling, bypassing the need for traditional active polling mechanisms on legacy or constrained network segments.

This MIB module provides a reverse poll for systems that do not yet support polling. See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2020271 for details on reverse polling in VMware SNMP agents.
