Functions

Load	Loads a MIB text file into the database.	Filename:
		C:\EV60\MIB\SMC.MIB

Unload	Unloads a MIB module from the database. If the specified module	Current MIB:
	has any dependencies; i.e., has other modules attached to it, the	RFC1213-MIB
	compiler will ask whether or not you want to unload the specified
	module and all of its dependencies. This is analogous to deleting a
	subdirectory – You cannot delete a subdirectory without first deleting
	the files it contains.

Loading a new MIB

1.Select Load from the MIB Compiler.

2.Type the full name of the MIB file in the Filename field.

Each MIB file defines a MIB module. The MIB name is indicated at the beginning of the file as in the example below, where the name of the module is given as RFC1213-MIB.

RFC1213-MIB DEFINITIONS::=BEGIN...

All MIBs are defined under the same tree, making MIB definitions related to one another.

The EliteView MIB database identifies MIB objects with names and modules. Each object has a distinct name within a module, and each module may be loaded or unloaded at any time.

The MIB Compiler reads the specified MIB file and displays the names of the MIB objects as the file is scanned. If any error occurs during this process, it will stop scanning and display the object label and the line number near where the error occurred as in the example below:
