Re: [nv-l] Mib2trap alcatel AOS devices

This MIB isn't loadable because what it is doing is defining the construct  MODULE-IDENTITY.   The loader won't let you do that.  It already "knows" what MODULE-IDENTITY  means and will not let you re-define it.
Not all MIBs are loadable.  Some very basic ones are already "hard-wired" into the product.
Generally speaking the ones you have to load are vendor-specific  MIBs.
If I steered you wrong talking about the IMPORTS section, I'm sorry.   You don't necessarily have to load all of those.  Only those which contain constructs the loader tells you  he cannot resolve.

ARG!!!!!!!!!! 
Every version of the SNMPv2-SMI mib I have foudn will not load using xnmloadmib2  keeps returning error 

MODULE-IDENTITY(is a reserved word): On or around line 64548 of the snmpv2mib file.   MIb table is bad. 

any thoughts
