Accessing the Core MIB
The Core MIB monitors device status and peers, and it provides network statistics for seamless integration into network management systems such as Hewlett Packard OpenView Network Node Manager, PRTG, and other SNMP browser tools.
For details about configuring and using these network monitoring tools, consult their product documentation.
The following guidelines describe how to download and access the Core MIB using common MIB browsing utilities:
• You can download the Core MIB file (GC-MIB.txt) from the Support page of the Management Console or from the Riverbed Support site at
https://support.riverbed.com and load it into any MIB browser utility.
• Some utilities might expect a file type other than a text file. If this occurs, change the file extension to the type required by the utility you have chosen.
• Some utilities assume that the root is mib-2 by default. If the utility sees a new node, such as enterprises, it might look under mib-2.enterprises. If this occurs, use .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.rbt as the root.
• Some command-line browsers might not load all MIB files by default. If this occurs, find the appropriate command option to load the GC-MIB.txt file: for example, for NET-SNMP browsers, snmpwalk -m all.
