SNMPTRANSLATE(1) Net-SNMP SNMPTRANSLATE(1) NAME snmptranslate - translate MIB OID names between numeric and textual forms SYNOPSIS snmptranslate [OPTIONS] OID [OID]... DESCRIPTION snmptranslate is an application that translates one or more SNMP object identifier values from their symbolic (textual) forms into their numer- ical forms (or vice versa). OID is either a numeric or textual object identifier. OPTIONS -D TOKEN[,...] Turn on debugging output for the given TOKEN(s). Try ALL for extremely verbose output. -h Display a brief usage message and then exit. -m MIBLIST Specifies a colon separated list of MIB modules to load for this application. This overrides the environment variable MIBS. The special keyword ALL is used to specify all modules in all directories when searching for MIB files. Every file whose name does not begin with "." will be parsed as if it were a MIB file. -M DIRLIST Specifies a colon separated list of directories to search for MIBs. This overrides the environment variable MIBDIRS. -T TRANSOPTS Provides control over the translation of the OID values. The following TRANSOPTS are available: -Td Print full details of the specified OID. -Tp Print a graphical tree, rooted at the specified OID. -Ta Dump the loaded MIB in a trivial form. -Tl Dump a labeled form of all objects. -To Dump a numeric form of all objects. -Ts Dump a symbolic form of all objects. -Tt Dump a tree form of the loaded MIBs (mostly useful for debugging). -Tz Dump a numeric and labeled form of all objects (compati- ble with MIB2SCHEMA format). -V Display version information for the application and then exit. -w WIDTH Specifies the width of -Tp and -Td output. The default is very large. In addition to the above options, snmptranslate takes the OID input (-I), MIB parsing (-M) and OID output (-O) options described in the INPUT OPTIONS, MIB PARSING OPTIONS and OUTPUT OPTIONS sections of the snmpcmd(1) manual page. EXAMPLES o snmptranslate -On -IR sysDescr will translate "sysDescr" to a more qualified form: system.sysDescr o snmptranslate -Onf -IR sysDescr will translate "sysDecr" to: .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysDescr o snmptranslate -Td -OS system.sysDescr will translate "sysDecr" into: SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr sysDescr OBJECT-TYPE -- FROM SNMPv2-MIB -- TEXTUAL CONVENTION DisplayString SYNTAX OCTET STRING (0..255) DISPLAY-HINT "255a" MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "A textual description of the entity. This value should include the full name and version identification of the system's hardware type, software operating-system, and networking software." ::= { iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) mgmt(2) mib-2(1) system(1) 1 } o snmptranslate -Tp -OS system will print the following tree: +--system(1) | +-- -R-- String sysDescr(1) | Textual Convention: DisplayString | Size: 0..255 +-- -R-- ObjID sysObjectID(2) +-- -R-- TimeTicks sysUpTime(3) +-- -RW- String sysContact(4) | Textual Convention: DisplayString | Size: 0..255 +-- -RW- String sysName(5) | Textual Convention: DisplayString | Size: 0..255 +-- -RW- String sysLocation(6) | Textual Convention: DisplayString | Size: 0..255 +-- -R-- Integer sysServices(7) +-- -R-- TimeTicks sysORLastChange(8) | Textual Convention: TimeStamp | +--sysORTable(9) | +--sysOREntry(1) | +-- ---- Integer sysORIndex(1) +-- -R-- ObjID sysORID(2) +-- -R-- String sysORDescr(3) | Textual Convention: DisplayString | Size: 0..255 +-- -R-- TimeTicks sysORUpTime(4) Textual Convention: TimeStamp o snmptranslate -Ta | head will produce the following dump: dump DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN org ::= { iso 3 } dod ::= { org 6 } internet ::= { dod 1 } directory ::= { internet 1 } mgmt ::= { internet 2 } experimental ::= { internet 3 } private ::= { internet 4 } security ::= { internet 5 } snmpV2 ::= { internet 6 } o snmptranslate -Tl | head will produce the following dump: .iso(1).org(3) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).directory(1) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).mgmt(2) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).mgmt(2).mib-2(1) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).mgmt(2).mib-2(1).system(1) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).mgmt(2).mib-2(1).system(1).sysDescr(1) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).mgmt(2).mib-2(1).system(1).sysObjectID(2) .iso(1).org(3).dod(6).internet(1).mgmt(2).mib-2(1).system(1).sysUpTime(3) o snmptranslate -To | head will produce the following dump .1.3 .1.3.6 .1.3.6.1 .1.3.6.1.1 .1.3.6.1.2 .1.3.6.1.2.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3 o snmptranslate -Ts | head will produce the following dump .iso.org .iso.org.dod .iso.org.dod.internet .iso.org.dod.internet.directory .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2 .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysDescr .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysObjectID .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysUpTime o snmptranslate -Tt | head will produce the following dump org(3) type=0 dod(6) type=0 internet(1) type=0 directory(1) type=0 mgmt(2) type=0 mib-2(1) type=0 system(1) type=0 sysDescr(1) type=2 tc=4 hint=255a sysObjectID(2) type=1 sysUpTime(3) type=8 ATTRIBUTES See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +---------------+-----------------------------------------------+ |ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +---------------+-----------------------------------------------+ |Availability | system/management/snmp/net-snmp/documentation | +---------------+-----------------------------------------------+ |Stability | Volatile | +---------------+-----------------------------------------------+ SEE ALSO snmpcmd(1), variables(5), RFC 2578-2580.
