3199.0. "SNMP and the Iconic Map" by VCSESU::WADE (Bill Wade, VAXc Systems & Support Eng) Wed Jun 17 1992 14:20

    
DECmcc 1.2.7
    
I am having a problem with snmp management and a mib that I enrolled.
     

From the FCL I can do the following and it works fine -

      Verb: set
    Entity: snmp cuneyt dec ema EBRMATRIXNAMETABLE mop
 Arguments: ebrMatrixValue (1,2,3:4)
Qualifiers:
   
But when I try it from the Iconic Map I get the error -

"Unsupported wildcard in target entity specification"


I've attached the portion of the MIB that deals with the EBRMATRIXNAMETABLE.
Also, if you want to look at the  Iconic Map display with the error message,
I used print screen and captured it to file -

		VCSESU::USERDISK2:[WADE.PUBLIC]MCC.PS

Any ideas?
    
    
Thanks,
Bill

    You are not supporting the 
    
    	SHOW SNMP cuneyt dec ema ebrDANameTable * ALL IDENTIFIERS 
    
    correctly.  It should be returning an out_e containing the instance
    
    	cuneyt dec ema ebrDANameTable
    	
    not 
    
    	cuneyt dec ema ebrDANameTable * 
    
    because of this the iconic map is trying to the FCL equivalent
    of 
    	SET SNMP cuneyt dec ema ebrDANameTable * ebrDAName = aaa
    
    which will give you the exact same error message!
    
    I bet you just copy in_e to out_e.  out_e should always contain
    the instance (unless there aren't any).  The iconic map depends
    on this behavior to enumerate the children of an entity when
    looking into it.
