The MIB Modules view

The MIB Modules view provides a representation of all the imported MIB modules and allows you to search for MIB modules, delete MIB modules, and to search for specific MIB values.

You move through the MIB Modules view by expanding and collapsing nodes within the MIB tree. The top level branches of the MIB tree contain the names of the MIB modules, and contained within each MIB module branch are the other elements which comprise the MIB.

You can filter the data in the MIB Modules view by selecting one of the following options from the View drop-down list:

All
Modules
Enumerations
Textual Conventions
Syntaxes
Imports
Exports
Columns
Descriptions

To search theMIB Modules view for a specific value, type your text in the Search field and either press Enter or click Search icon (Search).

MIB Manager begins the search from the selected item or, if no item is currently selected, from the first item in the list. To find the next matching item from the list, continue to click Search icon (Search).

When an item is located, it is automatically highlighted and displayed in the MIB Modules view.

In the Search field, specify a valid regular expressions or enter plain text to represent a complete or partial object name.

To delete one or more MIB modules, right-click the selected MIB module(s), and then from the pop-up menu, select Delete. The selected MIB module is deleted from MIB Manager. However, the original MIB source files, supplied for the MIB import, are not be deleted.

Note: You must only delete a MIB module if it contains errors and there is a new replacement version of the MIB module. Deleting MIB modules using this method can result in missing MIB dependencies. Incomplete rules files can also be generated during the export process together with warning or error messages in the log file.

The following table lists the MIB Modules view icons and describes what each one represents.
