Managing Management Information Bases (MIBs)

By modifying the Open NerveCenter MIB, you control which devices NerveCenter can effectively manage. The major SNMP MIB definitions and Open management application MIB definitions are already compiled in the default NerveCenter MIB. You can add other standard MIB definitions and vendors' MIB definitions -- many of which are shipped with NerveCenter -- as you need them.

This chapter includes the following sections:

Section	Description
Sources of MIB Definitions	Describes the definitions that are pre-compiled in the NerveCenter MIB, the vendor definitions that are shipped with NerveCenter, and guidelines for using definitions from other sources.
Adding or Removing MIB Definitions	Describes how to add and remove references to MIB definitions from a text file that determines which MIB definitions are compiled into the NerveCenter MIB.
Compiling the NerveCenter MIB	Describes how to use the MIB compiler to compile the NerveCenter MIB.
Configuring NerveCenter to Use the New MIB	Describes how to use the NerveCenter Administrator to load the MIB.
Troubleshooting: Managing Management Information Bases (MIBs)	Lists common problems users face when using MIBs.
