Some time ago I inquired how I could/would go about adding a MIB
'sub tree' to the walkable/followable mibs in MIB Browser.
I was told to put the mib file in my scotty's mib directory, and
run 'mib load name'. I did this, a .idx file was created, and I
excitedly restarted tkined, but, no dice ;(
So, I wonder why? Well, first off, my proof it doesn't work: I
am attempting to put in some Frame Relay monitoring MIBs, and I
know that they diverge about the same place cisco starts, an
example mib from the Frame Relay tree,
.1.3.6.1.4.1.74.2.15.8.3.1.4.i. A cisco mib example would be
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.57
Well, we know that .1.3.6.1 is internet. And that .4 is private,
eh, which explains the AT&T frame relay mib I'm looking at. So, I
ought to see AT&T with cisco, or some sort of different name, but
it's not there.
When I look a bit closer at the MIB file, I see the following:
: ATT-CNM-ENHANCED-FRAME-RELAY-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN
:
: IMPORTS
: enterprises, Gauge
: FROM RFC1155-SMI
: DisplayString
: FROM RFC1213-MIB
: OBJECT-TYPE
: FROM RFC-1212;
So, I think the problem may be that I don't have mibs loaded for/from
rfc1212. Does anyone know why I'm not seeing the new mib? Is it because
the 'imported' one isn't there?
Thanks!
