I am having a problem registering child entities of the of the vendor
MIB dec for the GIGAswitch. It seems like a size problem. The dec MIB
has a structure:
sysobjid->bridges->gigaswitch->gigaversion1->...
dec->ema->
decMIBExtensions->elanext->...
I can register dec, ema, sysobjid, but nothing beyond that point. I
also cannot register decMIBExtensions or anything below it. Does this
sound familiar to anyone?

I forgot to mention the error message. When I try to enter say
"bridges", I get the following registration error message "The entity
SNMP LOCAL_NS:.giga01.port1 is not registered". "giga01.port1" is the
entities registered name.

| 5971.2 | it works as advertised, but beware of bug | SCCA::dave | Ahh, but fortunately, I have the key to escape reality. | Fri Apr 29 1994 21:00 | 20 |
I have gotten everything to work just fine many times with one exception. To make this work, you have to register each step of the path for every device. If you have AA->BB->CC, then for each instance of AA, you must register AA <instance x>, and AA<instance x> BB <instance y> before you can register AA <instance x> BB <instance y> CC. The exception. I fell over a bug in the Iconic MAP that only allows you to register items that are 8 levels deep in the dictionary. (left over from the days when the dictionary only supported 10 levels). Most of the code was fixed to support 15 levels, but one place in the toolbox was missed, so the map will crash if you try to register too deeply. FCL will be able to register the object just fine, and a little bit of editing in the MAP file will get it placed for you. This was fixed, and is the MUP code stream, I don't know if it ever went into the CLD PATCH code stream. (Dont think so). | |||||
| 5971.3 | Registering all levels was the key | JULIET::PEPE_RI | Marvin K. Mooney, will you please go NOW! | Wed May 04 1994 18:39 | 6 |
Your response was the key to getting the task done. My memory was
indicating that I had registered a lower level instance of another MIB
without registering the upper levels. In any case registering all the
levels worked nicely.
