I have a couple of questions:
- Has anyone successfully built the libsmi package on Solaris 9/10. I have
tried on Solaris 10 with no success; Configure works but the compilation fails almost immediately. I will soon try with Solaris 9 as well but any pointers would be really appreciated.
You first have to tell precisely what breaks.
- I would like to modify the 'dump identifers' driver for smidump to show
the nodes in the following format:
name oid syntax/base type
I see that the names and oids are already dumped. However, instead of the syntax, the node type is dumped.
The 'identifiers' driver dumps module name, identifier, OID. If you have one that also shows the node type, you might not have a vanilla libsmi source tree.
I looked at the xml driver and saw that the base type was dumped in some cases but not all; instead, the syntax would point to a type module and then the name. I have added the imported modules as follows to the smidump.conf file:
load dependency.mib load SNMPv2-TC load SNMPv2-CONF
but still see the same output format. Here are a few examples of this:
For myId column, I see the desired result:
*-* file:///D:/smi/mibs/fsvcm.mib.xml# - <column name="myId" oid=" 1.3.6.1.4.1.2076.93.1.2.1.1" status="current">
<syntax>
<typedef basetype="Integer32" name="" status="current">
<range min="0" max="65535" /> </typedef> </syntax>
HHowever, for myMac, I see the pointer to the SNMP-TC mib:
<column name="myMac" oid="1.3.6.1.4.1.2076.93.1.2.1.3" status="current">
<syntax>
<type module="SNMPv2-TC" name="MacAddress" /> </syntax>
Is there a way to get the base type or typedef for such columns.
Since you do not show the input, there is little value in speculating over the output. But sure, libsmi internally has all the information you need (if the MIB modules parses without any errors) and it is not difficult to write your own output driver if you need something the ones shipped with the package do not provide.
