About locally generated MIBs
Create a MIB from the popup menu on an SnmpNetwork Local Device (Refer to Create a MIB) or by using the Snmp Servlet through a browser connection to your station (Refer to Create a MIB using the Snmp Servlet).
The generated MIB defines the information that can be exposed for a station running the SnmpNetwork. This custom MIB includes entries for the current MIB objects as well as the export tables. After generating the MIB, save the file under any folder that you have read-write access to, as shown below. After compiling the MIB, an Snmp manager application can use the information to read and write data to and from the station.
“Standard” MIBs are included in the nSnmp driver module.
NOTE: Standard MIBs are those that have been approved by the Internet Architecture Board (IAB). Equipment and software vendors define the private MIBs unilaterally. A branch within the private.enterprises subtree is allocated to each vendor who registers for an enterprise Object Identifier. The distinction between the standard and private MIBs is based on how the variables are defined. The best example of a standard MIB is the RFC1213-MIB (also known as MIB-II).
Compiling the MIB using the Snmp Point Manager view reveals a list of points, as shown below. This illustration shows the Snmp Point Manager view displaying five columns. You can show more columns or hide columns, as desired, using the table controls. Refer to About the Snmp Point Manager view for more information about the Snmp Point Manager view.
