    Hi,

    To find out the status of a print device with a legacy
    SNMP manager using a WIMS Proxy, specify in a Schedule
    a GetElements action as follows:

    ActionTargetURIs = "snmp://example.com"

    ActionTargetObjects = (sequence of)

      ActionManagedEntityType = "Device"
        (generic Device object planned for WIMS)
      ActionManagedEntityURI = "*"
        (wildcard for any device at target agent)

    ActionRequestedElements = (sequence of)

      ActionRequestedElement = "pwg-sm:PrtViewDeviceStatus"
        (includes every interesting HR MIB state attribute)

      ActionRequestedElement = "pwg-sm:PrtViewGeneralStatus"
        (interesting state attributes from PrtGeneralTable)

    ActionParameters (omitted, no vendor extensions needed)

    (Note that managed entity type of "Printer" won't work, because
    it's only an abstract service object in PWG SM/1.0 and does NOT
    contain the PrtViews complex element - eventually, the fully
    qualified elements would be "pwg-sm:Device.PrtView...")

    Harry, I hope this helps.

    Cheers,
    - Ira
