MIB configuration

When adding a new MIB to the system, it is necessary to compile/translate it into a human readable format to make messages displayed by CaMM easier to interpret.

  1. copy MIB file from vendor to /usr/share/snmp/mibs
  2. type: export MIBS=ALL to ensure all the mibs will be read in by snmptranslate
  3. run snmptranslate on directory & look for errors related to the MIB you added
  4. if ok, run snmpttconvertmib –in=/usr/share/snmp/mibs/<NEW_MIB> –out=/etc/snmp/snmptt/<vendor>.conf –net_snmp_perl see http://snmptt.sourceforge.net/docs/snmpttconvertmib.shtml
  5. add reference in /etc/snmp/snmptt.ini to new file if necessary
