Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v12) — Question 96

Garry is a network administrator in an organization. He uses SNMP to manage networked devices from a remote location. To manage nodes in the network, he uses MIB, which contains formal descriptions of all network objects managed by SNMP. He accesses the contents of MIB by using a web browser either by entering the IP address and Lseries.mib or by entering the DNS library name and Lseries.mib. He is currently retrieving information from an MIB that contains object types for workstations and server services.
Which of the following types of MIB is accessed by Garry in the above scenario?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, LNMIB2.MIB, which is relevant for managing workstation and server services. The other options, such as DHCP.MIB and WINS.MIB, focus on specific services rather than the broader management of network nodes that LNMIB2.MIB covers.
