Handling MIB Syntax or Dependency Errors

There are two main errors that can occur when uploading MIB files into WhatsUp Gold using the MIB Manager:

• Dependency errors. The most common. Dependency errors occur when a module's syntax compiles but cannot link with another MIB table that the new/modified MIB module requires.
• Syntax errors. Syntax occurs when the ASN2 syntax (the source code grammar used for MIB tables) is not valid.

Tip: To fix syntax errors you can adjust .my file in place according to error messages displayed by MIB manager, then Reload. For dependency errors, you will need to download the missing .my files and refresh the MIB collection (or fix syntax errors for dependency MIBs).
