Create a MIB

You need to have a custom MIB for any Local Device component that contains objects that you want to expose to an Snmp Network Manager. This procedure describes how to use the CreateMIB feature on an Snmp Local Device.
  1. In the Nav tree, expand your station tree to expose the Local Device (Station > Config > Drivers > SnmpNetwork).

    The Local Device displays under the SnmpNetwork node.

    The Create MIB dialog box displays, as shown below.

  3. In the Filename, type the path or browse to a location to specify where you want to save the MIB file and select the Version to V2 or V1.

    The MIB file displays in the MIB editor.

  4. Click the OK button.
  5. If you need to make changes to the MIB file, use the AX Text File Editor to edit the text and save the MIB file when you are finished.

    The file is saved and the AX Text File Editor closes. The custom MIB file is now available for using with “Discovery” and value updates (“Walking the MIB”).

The connection to the desired Snmp licensed station with the SnmpNetwork must be properly configured. For more information, refer to About locally generated MIBs.
