1.1 | 1 | == Install MIB Designer == |
| 2 | |||
| 3 | 1. Install (run) MIB Designer using Java WebStart if supported by your system from here. Alternatively run java -jar mibdesigner.jar on the command line. | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | == Create new New MIB Module == | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | 1. Click Yes if asked if you want to create a new MIB module using the New MIB Wizard or alternatively choose File>New. | ||
| 8 | 1. Specify the object name prefix and the MIB module name for the new MIB module: | ||

| 14 | 1. Edit the MIB module node. It is the top-most node that does //not// have a folder icon. Add organization, contact-info, and description. Do not add REVISION information now, because that would already release the module. | ||
| 15 | 1. Create your MIB objects. Typically you define the structure of your MIB module with OBECT-IDENTIFIER and the content with OBJECT-tYPE instances: | ||

| 17 | 1. Once you added your objects, you need to reference them to object groups in the conformance section of your MIB module: | ||

| 19 | 1. Check your MIB module with View>Check (not necessary if auto-check is enabled) and remove any errors. | ||
| 20 | 1. Release the MIB module by adding a new REVISION entry in the MIB module node: | ||

| 22 | 1. Check again the MIB module with View>Check (not necessary if auto-check is enabled) and remove any errors. | ||
| 23 | 1. Save the new MIB module with File>Save. | ||
| 24 | 1. Export the new MIB module as text file (backup and for usage with non-AGENT++ tools) with File>Export MIB as. | ||
