1. Re: Meru controller (Oliver Gorwits)

Hi Marco
I'm not expert on this, but I'll try to reply and someone can correct me
:-).
The MIB file is in the netdisco-mibs folder but isn't actually loaded at
runtime, so Netdisco (and more specifically the SNMP::Info library) can't
do the translation. The MIBs to be loaded are specified by the SNMP::Info
"Device Class" which you can see in Netdisco's Device Details tab, and I
assume for this that either there's no specific class and you get the
default one (SNMP::Info::Layer2 or whatever) or the Meru class isn't
loading the MIB.
So, assuming the former, the solution is to have a more specific SNMP::Info
device class (SNMP::Info::Layer2::Meru for example) and then have that
class load the MIB. The assigning of the class is done on things like
matching the device's vendor (enterprises.15983).
A nice design but not easy to access for the beginner. So do let us know if
you can do the above, or else open a ticket in the SNMP::Info github repo
and copy the above and it may get done. This certainly thinks we could
benefit from a redesign to make on-boarding of new platforms somewhat
easier.
Hope that helps,
Oliver.
