You have several options. 1 – Kick the vendor into giving you the mib. 2 – Demand the mib from the vendor 3 – Leave the vendor and go elsewhere if they refuse to give you a mib.
You really need to the mib to understand what the object id is to poll and formats of variables. 4 – If you know the Object ID, variable type. You could create your own mib file that you could use to import through MibTools 5 – Technically you could use MTE (Model Type Editor) to create a variable. However, if you are not familiar with MTE, you don’t want to go this route, because you could destroy your catalog. If you do, always make sure to back up the catalog before starting.

I think the best way to implement is to create an attribute and then attach a watch to it. How can I create new attributes from scratch since I don’t have a relevant mib file. Best Regards, Amitay. __________________ Amitay Ben-Ishay Senior Software Architecture& ProductManager [cid:image001.jpg@01CD0D02.DBDEF490] Work: +972-54-7814588 Mobile:+972-54-9909149 Fax: +972-153-54-9909149 Email: amitay.ben-is...@orange.co.il<mailto:amitay.ben-is...@orange.co.il> LinkedIN: Amitay's Profile<http://www.linkedin.com/in/amitay> Pplease consider the environment before printing this email ------------------------------------------------------------ This message contains information that may be confidential or privileged.
