How Do I list the contents of the eDirectory MIB?
On Linux you can use the snmpwalk application developed by U C Davis to display the contents of the eDirectory MIB. Alternatively you can use any of the MIB browsers to list the contents. 3.4 I can retrieve all the objects from the MIB, but they are shown as numbers. There are two reasons for this 1. The eDirectory MIB module is not present in the default directory where the application looks for the MIB modules 2. Not all MIB modules are loaded by the applications In order to resolve the above problem, perform the following operations: 1. cp the edir.mib from the /etc/ndssnmp directory to /usr/share/snmp/ as EDIR-MIB.txt ( this is the standard convension) 2. By default the snmpwalk application does not load all the modules, so include the -m all option/parameter to the snmpwalk command line.
