The following is a sample workflow for creating an SNMP driver:
Loading a MIB Module into SNMP Driver Creator
You can load a MIB module either from a local file system or from an Application Server:
• "Loading a MIB Module from a Local File System" , on page 463
• "Loading a MIB Module from an Application Server" , on page 465
Sample workflow: Creating an SNMP Driver
1. Open SNMP Driver Creator (see page 737 ).
2. Load the required MIB modules for the device you intend to link to with the new SNMP
driver (see
"Loading a MIB Module into SNMP Driver Creator" , on page 462).
3. Configure the new driver (see "Configuring an SNMP Driver’s Settings" , on page 467).
4. Create an alarm (see page 469 ).
5. [OPTIONAL] Create a poller (see page 479 ).
6. [OPTIONAL] Create an alarm map (see page 473 ).
7. [OPTIONAL] Create a trap map (see page 475 ).
8. Add a MIB OID getter and variable getter to the script (see page 481 ).
9. Verify the driver script syntax (see page 491 ).
10. Package the generated JavaScript source code (see page 484 ).
11. Publish the generated script (see "Publishing a Driver" , on page 487).
Note: The following procedures contain graphics showing SNMP Driver Creator as
it appears when opened from iC Navigator. The user interface appears slightly
different when opened from iC Creator.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to load core RFC MIBs as they are implicit within both SNMP
Driver Creator and the MIB Browser.
