To generate the code to allow the agent to understand a MIB: 1) You will need to set the environment variable "MIBS" to "ALL" in your environment, e.g.: setenv MIBS ALL (for csh) MIBS=ALL ; export MIBS (for sh/bash) 2) Download the SNMP PERL module Download the SNMP module from http://www.cpan.org/ This seems to be at: http://cpan.valueclick.com/modules/by-category/05_Networking_Devices_IPC/SNMP/ 3) Place your MIBs in /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs/ 3) Run the mib2c script perl -I mib2c e.g. perl -I~/perl.pl/nsPerl5.005_03/lib/site/i686-linux mib2c interfaces
