[HECnet] snmp auto config load

[Brian Hechinger]

The problem there is that it's not that simple. It's not like an LDAP schema where the OIDs are right in the file. MIBs do all sorts of weird referential stuff. If you look at the cisco decnet mib file there aren't actually any OIDs in it.

Perhaps reading the MIB file might give you a clue to the oid?   It's just a text file.

I'll have to take another look at that, didn't have much luck with that before.

I shouldn't need the MIB files if anyone actually knew the OIDs for what I need to fetch. That's how I do the tftp load thing. I don't have MIBs and don't want/need them. I just use the numeric OIDs.

Brian,
    I *think* you have to load the Cisco Decnet MIB in to your local machine before snmpwalk will walk the Decnet portion.   I found a MIB from Cisco but was unable to get it loaded on my Linux box, so I gave up.   Not that I tried really hard, though.

Brian,
  I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for your hard work on this!   The level of automation is incredible.   Now we just have to get Peter on board:)
I second this.   Thank you.
Thank you very much guys. This has been amazingly fun to do and quite a learning experience as well. I've done stuff I've never had to do before. I learned new things! :)

  I think that you are now the perfect source of information to assist in the Hecnet mapping project - at least for the Cisco part.
I think he is as well.;)
That and I wrote the NCP based mapping code, so yeah, I might just be the right guy. :)

Looking at an snmpwalk of my router I'm just not seeing anything DECnet in any way. I think I'm going to have to resort to other options (all of which had issues of some sort, so we'll see what we come up with).

If anyone knows what I should be looking at in SNMP or what I need to do to be able to get DECnet info out of SNMP on a cisco, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. :)
