Re: snmp agent discovery via HP Web Jet Admin

Hi,

I edited the HP Laserjet 2300 MIB a bit and made the prtCovertable writable
to test the Web Jet admin discovery.
the part i edited looks like this

prtCoverTable OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     SEQUENCE OF PrtCoverEntry
    MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
        "A table of the covers and interlocks of the printer."
    ::= { prtCover 1 }

prtCoverEntry OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     PrtCoverEntry
    MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
        "Information about a cover or interlock.
        Entries may exist in the table for each device
        index whose device type is `printer'."
    INDEX  { prtCoverIndex }
    ::= { prtCoverTable 1 }

PrtCoverEntry ::= SEQUENCE {
    prtCoverIndex            Integer32,
    prtcoverdescription      OCTET STRING,
    prtcoverstatus           INTEGER
}

prtCoverIndex OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX     Integer32 (1..65535)
    MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
    STATUS     current
    DESCRIPTION
        "A unique value used by the printer to identify this Cover
        sub-unit.  Although these values may change due to a major
        reconfiguration of the device (e.g. the addition of new
        cover sub-units to the printer), values are expected to
        remain stable across successive printer power cycles."
    ::= { prtCoverEntry 1 }

prtcoverdescription OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX  OCTET STRING (SIZE(0..255))
    ACCESS  read-create
    STATUS  optional
    DESCRIPTION
                "The manufacturer provided cover sub-mechanism  name in the
        localization specified by prtGeneralCurrentLocalization.
 Refer to Internet Draft Printer MIB, expiring Sept. 1997 for more details."
::= { prtCoverEntry 2 }


prtcoverstatus OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX  INTEGER {
     ePdoorOpen(3),
     ePdoorClosed(4)
     }
    ACCESS  read-create
    STATUS  optional
    DESCRIPTION
                "The status of this cover sub-unit.
 Refer to Internet Draft Printer MIB, expiring Sept. 1997 for more details."
::= { prtCoverEntry 3 }

I run mib2c.mfd.conf to created the template code. But i don't exactly
know how to add a row to the table. Where in the resulting code can i do
this? I have looked at the netSnmpIETFWGTable example and at the ifTable
example but couldn't figure out what to do.
I tried to set the table with snmpset command and got following

snmpset -cpsi -v1 192.168.2.101 prtcoverdescription.0 s "DE"
prtcoverdescription.0 : (Index out of range: 0 (prtCoverIndex))

I would be very gratefull if someone can send me an example how to populate
this table

thanks in advance for any suggestions
