Visual MIB Builder implements the New MIB Module Wizard, a user-friendly
feature that helps you create the basic structure of a new SMIv2 MIB module
in a few simple steps
(screen shot).
|
|
The software lets you define MIB objects by dragging
required types of MIB nodes from the SMI Components window to the
desired positions in the MIB tree and assigning their properties
(screen shot).
|
|
Visual MIB Builder lets you assign all relevant SMIv1 or SMIv2
properties to MIB tree nodes, TEXTUAL-CONVENTION and Type assignment
definitions as well as to SNMPv1 Trap definitions
(screen shot).
|
|
Integrated SNMP Table editor provides a convenient interface and
offers even better assistance to users creating or editing SNMP
tables in MIB definitions
(screen shot).
|
|
Visual MIB Builder provides a comprehensive interface for assigning
SYNTAX clause properties to MIB objects
(screen shot).
|
|
Visual MIB Builder provides a convenient interface for assigning SNMP
table indexes
(screen shot).
|
|
Visual MIB Builder provides Revision Control framework. Once a MIB
definition is published, it must not be modified in a way that would
change the behaviour of defined objects. SMI specification exactly
defines what changes to MIB definition are permitted after MIB
publication and Visual MIB Builder enforces correct usage of SMI rules
trough the Revision control framework
(screen shot).
|
|
SMI Consistency Wizard significantly enhances Visual MIB Builder's
ability to open and repair inconsistent MIB definition files. Using this
wizard, you can fix 'broken' MIB definition files in minutes
(screen shot).
|
|
Visual MIB Builder contains Spell checker for detecting possible
spelling mistakes in the plain text areas in MIB definitions.
|
|
Additional Properties window provides a convenient interface for
assigning SMI node DESCRIPTION and REFERENCE properties,
TEXTUAL-CONVENTION's DISPLAY-HINT property, comments,...
(screen shot).
|
|
Clicking a node in MIB Tree or TEXTUAL-CONVENTION node, SNMPv1
TRAP-TYPE or Type assignment node displays the SMI definition of the
clicked node
(screen shot).
|
|
You can preview the generated SMI code of the built MIB module in the MIB Definition
Preview window
(screen shot).
|
|
Visual MIB Builder's Consistency Checker forces you to create
syntactically and semantically valid MIBs that will successfully compile
with any SMIv1 or SMIv2 compliant MIB Compiler
(screen shot).
|
|
Visual MIB Builder's lets you convert SMIv1 MIBs into SMIv2 format as
well as SMIv2 MIBs into SMIv1 format. Both conversions are compliant
with the 'Coexistence RFC'. When converting MIBs from SMIv1 into SMIv2,
SMI Conformance Wizard helps you create all required conformance
statements.
