[mrtg] Re: MIB files

[Keith Olmstead]

I think I might have found out my problem.  After doing some more digging, 
I found on deja.com that if you add .0 at the end of your OID it will 
work.  I did that I stopped getting the snmpget error that I was previously 
getting.

My problem was the when I did snmpget on the specific oid it did not find 
it, did not know what it was.  Even an snmpwalk did not find the OIDs that 
I got from GetIF.  So I assumed that my Unix box just did not know what the 
specific OID that I was looking for was.  So I found the "LoadMIB" command 
to load the MIB files that I got for the Cache Engine.

I will try your suggestion below.  I do know the specific OIDs that I want 
and I might make a txt file with them in and just use that instead of the 
MIB files that I got from Cisco.

Question though.  How did by adding the ".0" at the end of my OID fix my 
problem.
