RE: I exclude the snmp_mib in the command line, why I can't get the traffic statistics?

	You misread the instructions:

[SNIP]

{/SNIP]

	This means, "don't have 'snmp_mib' in that list".  You should have left it as is:

[SNIP]
> snmpd.exe -I-udp,udpTable,tcp,tcpTable,icmp,ip,interfaces,system_mib,
> sysORTable -DwinExtDLL
[/SNIP]


> Then, I use the following command line to get the traffic statistics:
> snmpget -v 1 -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.2.1.11

	That should be snmpwalk, not snmpget.  Actually, you should use snmpgetnext ("crawl") until you get a response, then try walking.

	That might be interesting, but it's tangential.  You're trying to get a non-object.

	These configuration tokens aren't recognized when the MIB module that implements them is disabled.  It's nothing to worry about.


	HTH,
