Re: MIB Browser and Loader for NV 7.1

["James Shanks" <jshanks@us.ibm.com>]

This is a multipart message in MIME format.

Take another, closer look.

First, the old X-Windows SNMP V1/V2 loader and browser, xnmloadmib2 and 
xnmbrowser2, are there in /usr/OV/bin .  They just aren't on the X-Windows 
menu any more because they are no longer being enhanced, but if you feel 
you must use them for some reason, have at it.  You just have to invoke 
them from the command line. 

Second the new SNMP V1/V2 Java MIB browser is part of the web client.  You 
can bring up the web client to use it, or you can invoke it from the 
command line.  This latter part may not be obvious but I thought it was in 
the Release Notes.  Type  mibbrowser.sh  to start it outside of the web 
client.
Incidentally, you can start the Java MIB loader with mibloader.sh (for 
command -line only functions including the new mib2trap) or mibloaderpanel 
to get the Java  GUI.

Hi there.

I have just installed NV 7.1,...well, here are some of the problems:

First, there is only SNMP V1 MIB loader, while SNMP V2 MIB loader is  Web
Console (java) based only, while old MIB Loader v1/v2 is gone.
Web console MIB loader loads the mibs in to www/mibs directory. I think 
for
someone who wants to use only X environment, this is not very nice.

Second, There is no SNMP V2 MIB Browser. It is gone. Based on the release
notes, the MIB Browser is supposed to have SNMP Version button with who
options: Version 1 and Version 2, but there is only simple old SNMP V1 MIB
browser and that is it.

To make it short, you compile SNMP V2 MIBS using Java interface and then 
you
can't browse it?

Does anyone have any idea what is going on and how to solve this problem?

I appreciate that,

thanks.
