Hi Jeff,

You need a MIB compiler or at least a name
to OID mapping to do this at runtime. The
latter can be generated at compile time
with AgenPro or MIB Explorer
(http://www.agentpp.com).

To use MIB information, you can use JASMI
(see http://www.mibdesigner.com) or any
other Java MIB compiler.

Best regards,
Frank

I am aiming to provide a very simple web control
interface to a device, using SNMP4J behind the scenes.
  I have a prototype running which essentially uses
the SNMPRequest class and I can sucessfully issue GETs
and SETs to the device.

Now, if I use 'snmptrap' from the command line, I can
issue GETs by variable name (e.g sysName.0) but with
SNMPRequest, I have to use the numeric OID (e.g. 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0) - the label name fails a validation
check as non-numeric.

I am sure there is an easy way to do this with SNMP4J
but it escapes me. Can anyone help or even provide an
example?
Regards

Jeff
