MibBrowser Component [IP*Works! S/SNMP V6]

Properties Methods Events Configuration Settings

The MIBBrowser component is used to parse SNMP MIB Module definitions.

NOTE: What follows is a very short description of the component interfaces. For more information, please consult the help files that come with the respective package.

Remarks

The MIBBrowser component allows easy loading and querying of definitions in the SNMP Management Information Base (MIB) specifications.

The LoadMib method allows loading of MIB modules, which get stored in an internal tree structure for further queries.

If modules reference (import) other modules, recursive loading of modules is performed automatically and/or controlled by the ImportSymbols event.

The MIB tree is navigated through the SelectNode method, which enables pointing to a node in the tree specified by NodeOid and NodeLabel. Other node information is provided through the NodeModuleName, NodeFileName, NodeSyntax, NodeType, and NodeAccess properties.

The node selector parameter in SelectNode can be a label such as "internet", an OID such as "1.3.6.4", a combination of the two: "iso.3.dod.internet", or a label in a particular module such as "RFC1213-MIB!interfaces".

Node children and successors are provided by the ListChildren and ListSuccessors methods. The individual node information is provided via the MibNode event.

Module traps are listed via the ListTraps method. The individual trap information is provided through the TrapNode event.
