MIB Downloading Instructions for Non-Vanguard Managed
Solutions SNMP Managers
Introduction This section lists Vanguard MIB files needed for SNMP management of Vanguard
devices when using a non-Vanguard Managed Solutions SNMP Network
Management System (NMS).
Obtaining MIB Files Vanguard MIB files for your non-Vanguard Managed Solutions NMS are available
from the Vanguide 6.2.R000 CD-ROM. Refer to your Vanguide 6.2.R000 CD-ROM
user documentation for the directory location of the MIB files.
You can also download MIB files from the internet. The address for the server is:

mibs
On the internet, there is one ZIP file for the PC and one ZIP file for UNIX. You must
unzip the ZIP file to get the MIB files. The contents of these two ZIP files are
identical. However, the formats of the files in these two ZIP files are slightly
different due to the way PCs and UNIX systems handle text files.Depending on the
protocols and options provided by the Applications Ware image installed in your
node, you might not need all the MIB files.See the Required Files and Loading
section below for details on the files you should have to support SNMP management
for Vanguard products.
Upgrading 9000
OMS to support 6.2
software
Install the 9000 OMS version 6.1 from CD first (for details on installation please
refer to Software_Release_Notice.pdf on the 9000 6.1 CD). If you do not have 9000
OMS version 6.1 CD, you need to contact your VanguardMS sales representative to
purchase the CD prior to the 9000 OMS release 6.2 installation.
1) Download DFF62.zip from http://www.vanguardms.com/support/
software_and_tools/#9000, unzip the zip file with Winzip to obtain all the 6.2
DFF files and the trap.conf file.
2) Procedure for parsing DFF files into the 9000 OMS database:
For the MS Windows system:
• Parsedff.exe is located in the path /Vanguard/motnm/bin->Parsedff.exe
(Parsedff.exe is the executable program for parsing).
• Gather all the DFF files to be parsed on the desktop or to the path selected.
The DFF files match the platforms. Example: MOTNAv6455, MOTNA7310,
MOTNA7330, MOTNAv320, MOTNAv340.
• Make a different folder with the release name to put all the parsed DFF files
in. Example: A folder named “6.2dffs”.
• At the DOS prompt, change the directory to the new folder name or to the
directory where you chose to keep the parsed DFF files in.
