6.3 PIB commands

The application implements a way to get/set PIBs from the Base Node. The following interfaces are available:

  • Local Requests:
    • Serial Profile
    • PRIME API
  • Remote Requests:
    • Base Management based on PRIME API
It allows access to PIBs from different layers:
MCHP-PRIME-BASE(prime)# pib
  app    APP Attribute
  cl432  CL4-32 Attribute
  mac    MAC Attribute
  mtp    MTP Attribute
  phy    PHY Attribute
For read-write PIBs, it is possible to get and set the PIB value:
MCHP-PRIME-BASE(prime)# pib mac
  get  Get PIB Attribute
  set  Set PIB Attribute
Locally, it is possible to access the base node modem through the management plane on the serial profile (mngp) or PRIME_API (mlme); on the other hand, the base management plane (bmng) is used for remote requests.
MCHP-PRIME-BASE(prime)# pib mac  get
  mlme  Request via MLME primitive
  mngp  Request via MNGP
  bmng  Request via Base Management PRIME Profile
