You *could* parse the MIB files yourself, but I'm not sure this is sensible. The usual way to implement pass-style subagents would be to write a dedicated script for a given table. So the information about the column OIDs, and indexing for the table would effectively be hardcoded into the script. It sounds as if you're looking to try and develop a general-purpose subagent script. That's probably more trouble than it's worth. After all - you've still got to handle retrieving the appropriate data from the underlying subsystems - which is inherently table specific. I wouldn't bother trying to parse the MIB structure dynamically within the pass script. Hardcode the table/column OIDs in the script, and concentrate on processing the instance subid.
