I was thinking, the registration functions like snmp_AddMibToListInternal(We are using net-SNMP 5.4.1 ), I can use to print the OIDs as well as the names. But looks like there is no data structure that links a OID name to its numeric counterpart. The nearest thing that I can get is from which module that a particular object is being registered. > Is this a MIB module that your group has written yourselves? > Or is it something from elsewhere? > Do you have the source code for the MIB module, or just binaries? > What are the OIDs that you are concerned with? No, the MIB modules are written by my group. I have the source code. The OIDs that I am working are enterprises OIDs. -----Original Message----- From: dave.shi...@gmail.com [mailto:dave.shi...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Dave Shield Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2012 6:29 PM To: Siva Esana -X (sesana - Tech Mahindra at Cisco) Cc: net-snmp-coders@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: OID name to numeric mapping.

If you don't have the MIB - then there is no way to (automatically) convert OIDs to names. That's the main purpose of the MIB file - without that, there's nothing for the APIs to work with. Is this a MIB module that your group has written yourselves? Or is it something from elsewhere? Do you have the source code for the MIB module, or just binaries? What are the OIDs that you are concerned with?
