Accessing and Downloading Cisco MIB Files Send documentation comments to [email protected] MIB Loading Order Many MIBs use definitions that are defined in other MIBs. These definitions are listed in the IMPORTS section near the top of the MIB. For example, if MIB B imports a definition from MIB A, some MIB compilers require you to load MIB A prior to loading MIB B. If you get the MIB loading order wrong, you might get an error message about what was imported, claiming it is undefined or not listed in IMPORTS. If you receive an error, look at the loading order of the MIB definitions from the IMPORTS of the MIB. Make sure that you have loaded all the preceding MIBs first. The following is a list of MIBs from which many other MIBs import definitions: (MIBs are listed in the order in which you should load them) • SNMPv2-SMI.my • SNMPv2-TC.my • SNMPv2-MIB.my • RFC1213-MIB.my • IF-MIB.my • CISCO-SMI.my • CISCO-TC.my • CISCO-ST-TC.my • ENTITY-MIB.my If you load the MIBs in this order, you can eliminate most of your load-order definition problems. You can load most other MIBs (those MIBs not listed in this list) in any order.
