But rather than describe that, can I suggest you use mib2c instead for doing your conversion? It's easier to use than writing a complete mib walker yourself (it's written in perl, FYI). # cat >> foo.conf << EOF @open -@ @foreach $n notifications@ OID=$n.objectID TYPE=$n.type LABEL=$n.label DESCRIPTION=$n.description INCLUDED VARBINDS: @foreach $v varbinds@ VARBIND: $v.objectID $v.type @end@ @end@ EOF # mib2c -c foo.conf snmpTraps ... OID=.1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.3 TYPE= LABEL=linkDown DESCRIPTION=A linkDown trap signifies that the SNMP entity, acting in an agent role, has detected that the ifOperStatus object for one of its communication links is about to enter the down state from some other state (but not from the notPresent state). This other state is indicated by the included value of ifOperStatus. INCLUDED VARBINDS: VARBIND: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1 ASN_INTEGER VARBIND: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7 ASN_INTEGER VARBIND: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 ASN_INTEGER ... (set the MIBS environment variable to force load some other mibs) See the mib2c.conf manual page for help on writing more using mib2c. -- Wes Hardaker Cobham Analytic Solutions ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
