About the Network Integrity SNMP Processor

The SNMP processor is a fully-implemented, code-generated discovery processor for SNMP-enabled network devices.

The SNMP processor sends a request to the SNMP device and receives the response. The response consists of a strongly-typed XML file which represents the raw SNMP results.

The processor interface, request, response, properties, and relevant helper classes are code-generated and fully implemented.

Before you can create SNMP processors, specify the management information base (MIB) directory in the Design Studio preferences for Network Integrity. See "Configuring Network Integrity Preferences" for more information.

Configuring Network Integrity SNMP Processors

This procedure assumes you have specified the MIB directory in the Design Studio preferences for Network Integrity. See "Configuring Network Integrity Preferences" for more information.

To configure SNMP processors:

  1. On the Processor editor SNMP tab, click Load MIB to load the MIB files into the SNMP processor.

    The Select MIB Files to Load dialog box appears.

  2. From the Matching Items list, select MIB files.

    You can filter the Matching Items list by typing in the Select an item to open field.

  3. Click OK.

    Design Studio add the MIBs to the SNMP area.

  4. Add OIDs to the SNMP table:

    1. In the SNMP Data Tree area, expand the MIBs until you reveal its objects.

    2. Select an object and click Add.

      Network Integrity supports only scalar and table column objects.

      Design Studio adds the object and its information to the SNMP table.

    SNMP processors must contain at least one OID.

  5. Save the processor.
