Sources of MIB Definitions

Several MIB definitions -- the Open management application definitions and the major Internet standard SNMP definitions -- are already compiled into nervectr.mib, the MIB that is installed with NerveCenter.

MIB definitions from other vendors (for Cisco router support, for example) are shipped with NerveCenter. These definitions are not pre-compiled into the NerveCenter MIB because incorporating all the definitions would increase the size of the MIB and could affect performance unnecessarily. You may add the definitions that are appropriate for your environment.

You can also add MIB definitions you've gotten from other sources.

Definitions Compiled into the NerveCenter MIB

The definitions that are already compiled into the NerveCenter MIB are the Open management application definitions and the major Internet standard SNMP definitions. The definitions are in subdirectories in the mib directory (mibs on UNIX).

Definitions Compiled into the MIB lists the subdirectories that contain these definitions and includes descriptions of each.
