Upgrading MibComp.txt

If you are upgrading from a previous version of NerveCenter, and have a modified MIB, Open recommends that you modify the new NerveCenter 3.8 mibcomp.txt file with any modifications you have made.

However, you can modify your existing mibcomp.txt as to comply with the new MIB compiler requirements. Updating MibComp.txt has two major steps:

1. Revise MibComp.txt by deleting old and adding new *.asn1 files for NerveCenter to run properly.
2. Reorganize the *.asn1 files so that all SMIv2 compliant MIB modules to the appropriate place in MibComp.txt.

 
  To revise MibComp.txt:

1. Comment out or delete the following lines from the rfc snmp v1 standard mibs section of mibcomp.txt:
      standard-v1/rfc1231.asn1
   standard-v1/rfc1232.asn1
   standard-v1/rfc1233.asn1
   standard-v1/rfc1243.asn1
   standard-v1/rfc1253.asn1
   standard-v1/rfc1269.asn1
   standard-v1/rfc1271.asn1
   standard-v1/rfc1286.asn1
2. Comment out or delete the following lines from the rfc snmp v2 standard mibs section of mibcomp.txt:
      standard-v2/rfc1573a.asn1
3. Add the following lines to the rfc snmp v2 standard mibs section of mibcomp.txt:
      standard-v2/v2-smi.my
   standard-v2/v2-tc.my
   standard-v2/v2-mib.my
   standard-v2/IANAifType-MIB.my
4. Comment out or delete the following lines from the rfc snmp v3 standard mibs section of mibcomp.txt:
      standard-v3/rfc2571.asn1
   standard-v3/rfc2572.asn1
   standard-v3/rfc2573.asn1
   standard-v3/rfc2574.asn1
   standard-v3/rfc2575.asn1
5. Add the following lines to the rfc snmp v3 standard mibs section of mibcomp.txt:
      standard-v3/v3-arch.my
   standard-v3/v3-mpd.my
   standard-v3/v3-tgt.my
   standard-v3/v3-notif.my
   standard-v3/v3-proxy.my
   standard-v3/v3-usm.my
   standard-v3/v3-acm.my

1. Add the following lines after the NerveCenter mibs section of mibcomp.txt:
      # SNMP Research, Inc. MIBs (required)
   #
   vendors/snmp_research/snmp-res.asn1 # SNMP-RESEARCH-MIB (required)
   #
   # Hewlett-Packard. MIBs (required) -IF using NetView or OpenView
   #
   vendors/hp/hpov-nnm.my

 
  To reorganize MibComp.txt:

1. Search all the *.asn1 files for the following text:

   MAX-ACCESS

2. Move all *.asn1 files that contain MAX-ACCESS after the following line:

# * * * End of SMIv1 / SNMPv1 MIB Modules * * *

Your MibComp.txt file should now compile with the new MIB compiler.
