Does this mean the agent has to use oid (1.2.3.4.xxx.1. etc) to reference an object in the MIB instead of the literal name of the object in the MIB?Since we normally use object name in agent coding, MIBs need to be loaded most of the time, right? /zgf > ------------------------------ > > Message: 5 > Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2008 10:02:10 +0530 > From: Aneesh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: MIB In SNMP > To: [email protected] > Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > Hello, > Can Anybody please give an explanation or a > document about MIB > in snmp.How It will work?.In agent is MIB required etc... > Thanks And Regards > Aneesh > -------------- next part -------------- > An HTML attachment was scrubbed... > > ------------------------------ > > Message: 6 > Date: Sun, 16 Nov 2008 20:57:06 +0100 > From: Magnus Fromreide <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: MIB In SNMP > To: Aneesh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: [email protected] > Message-ID: > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Content-Type: text/plain > > On Thu, 2008-11-13 at 10:02 +0530, Aneesh wrote: > > Hello, > > Can Anybody please give an explanation or a > document about > > MIB in snmp.How It will work?.In agent is MIB > required etc... > > A MIB is a description of some values that someone might > choose to make > available using an SNMP agent. > > The MIB defines the mapping from an object identifier (a > sequence of > digits) to a name. > > The agent do not need to load the MIB, it only have to > provide the > managed objects (the values) indexed by the object > identifier. > > /MF > > ********************************************** ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-coders mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-coders
