They are. > one of the devices is called an "RX1290" so I'm guessing then that the > file in the package called "rx1290.mib" (or maybe the one called > "base.mib") might be a good place to start. I'm currently working on SNMP on the RX8200, which is the successor to the RX1290. There's a limit to what I can tell you (customer confidentiality), but I might be able to help at some point. > I'm not finding the snmptranslate man page very easy going. it looks like > I need to find out how to indicate to it which file is the first I want it > to parse. My immediate recommendation would be to get hold of snmpb - it's available on sf.net. I know going to a GUI browser is something of a cop-out, but it's made my ilfe a whole lot easier. Probably best to stay away from pysnmp too - it has "interesting" features when you try to fetch OIDs that aren't in its current set of MIBs (and requires a translation to get "standard" MIB files into it).
