Using the SNMP MIB Manager

The SNMP MIB Manager provides a list of all of the MIB files installed in the WhatsUp Gold MIB directory. Using this tool, you can import new MIB files to the MIB Manager. SNMP MIB Manager validates imported MIB files and flags errors if there is a problem with a file.

To use the SNMP MIB Manager:

1. Go to the SNMP MIB Manager.
   • From the web interface, go to Admin > SNMP MIB Manager. The SNMP MIB Manager appears.
2. Use the following options in the SNMP MIB Manager:
   • View. Select a MIB file in the list, then click View to open the MIB and view the code.
   • Add. Click Add to import a MIB file to the MIB Manager. Follow the dialogs to complete the process.

   Note: If you need to add a large number of MIB files, you can manually copy them to the \Program Files\Ipswitch\WhatsUp\Data\Mibs\ directory, then click Reload in the SNMP MIB Manager dialog to update and validate their status.

   • Reload. When you import a new MIB file or are troubleshooting code in a MIB file, click Reload to refresh the MIB Module list and the Status list.
