Hi Team,

 

I observed a peculiar problem in SNMP tree. I just wanted to clarify the same with you experts.

 

In SNMP, if I have one object label named say “XYZ” in a MIB and the same label is found in some other MIBs, then latest loaded MIBs take the precedence. Meaning, same label is not allowing in SNMP MIB, in other words, it is allowing but overwriting the old one. Hope I am correct.

 

If that is the case, I have major problem with the label called “products”, because almost all MIBs has got this name in common.

 

Currently I am in the exercise of bringing UPS under monitoring, and the problem is there are lot of UPS MIB labels found to be common and making my job more and more tough. I know this is the problem with different vendors who develops this MIB but any other way out to mitigate this issue?

 

Your help much appreciated!

 

Thanks

Senny
