Thanks for this suggestion, Dave! I ran smilint against my MIB and - oops! - there were a bunch of v1/v2 errors. I've cleaned the MIB up, and will post it later for review. I have one last section to add, our own network support - TPTB don't want full SNMP support in the product, and they haven't decided if leaving MIB-II turned on shows too much information. And even if we leave in MIB-II, they want me to add the same data to our MIB that our management GUI shows for network subsystem. (We're still discussing the whole MIB-II thing . . .)
Thanks again for all your help! ~ Wendy -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Shield Sent: Friday, January 04, 2008 9:05 AM To: McGowen, Wendy Cc: net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: Enterprise trapquestion/send_v2trap API call On 04/01/2008, McGowen, Wendy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Our MIB's are still in definition, and since I'm very new > to this side of SNMP, any advice on MIB syntax is greatly appreciated! The first thing to do would be to run them through 'smilint' (or similar) to validate the syntax. Our MIB parsing tools are fairly easy-going, and will accept not-quite-valid MIBs. smilint is extremely picky, and will report on all sorts of errors and inconsistencies. Best to get these dealt with before you go live. Once your MIBs pass this sort of check, you might want to consider posting them here (assuming they're not commercially sensitive!), so we can comment on any design decisions that you might come to regret later. It's difficult to make sensible comments about MIB fragments, taken in isolation. It's much easier when you've got the whole thing to look at, and can get a better feel for the overall structure.
