Well,
and again, pardon my "newbie" incompetence.........what is actually happening is
I see tons and tons of events in Netview from our Contivity devices that are
sending traps. Ultimately it appears that Netview doesn't understand the
traps that are being sent in....so I am trying to give NetView what it
needs. I have a ces.mib and a cestraps.mib.....and I am assuming the
cestraps.mib is what will be necessary, I was just going ahead and trying to
load both of them....I get almost the same error when loading the cestraps.mib
also.
Brian -
This is an SNMP V2
MIB. "Module Identity" is a V2-only construct. That's why you
cannot load it with the SNMP V1 loader.
What are you trying to load it for? What do you
want to do with it?
You can load
it with the Java MIB loader, the one that comes with the web client, but then
you have to use the Java MIB browser to query the agent to get any
data.
Otherwise you will
probably have to find an SNMP V1 version of the MIB if you can.

James,
Thanks for the
reply...sorry for being so vague about the MIB load. Below is a capture
of the error message, and then below that, the first 20-25 lines of the MIB
file. The error is referring to line 17. This is happening on
NetView 7.1.2 on the Win2K platform using the Netview Client gui MIB Loader
(Tools...MIB...Loader SNMP v1).

What is
the error you are getting?
If you paste the error message and the
offending lines of the MIB, then maybe someone can tell you how to fix it.
It's probably just a syntax error.

Has anybody ever tried to
load the MIB for a Nortel Contivity Extranet switch into NetView ? I am
getting an error regarding line 52 of the cestraps.mib file and have tried the
same file from several sources with the same results. MIB's from other
vendors are loading correctly, so I think it is definitely the
cestraps.mib.....just wondered if anybody else has seen the same thing and
knows how to resolve it ?
