Folks,
I have recently installed snmp and noticed that due to a license issue the
MIBS are deployed in a different package called snmp-mibs-downloader that
downloads and compiles the MIBs in our systems.

ii  snmp                                 5.4.3~dfsg-2
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) applications
ii  snmp-mibs-downloader                 1.1
Install and manage Management Information Base (MIB) files
ii  snmpd                                5.4.3~dfsg-2
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agents


*Neverteless I found the following issues:*
*1. It seems to be that some MIBs Object definitions are lost:*

*I saw a few bugs reports submitted because of this, but couldn't find the
solution.

Will this affect graphical reporting tools like Cacti or monitoring tools
like Nagios?*


*2. TKMIB does not shows the whole SMI tree by default.*
You have to manually go to MIBS->Load MIBS and put the path to
/usr/share/mibs/ietf to be able to see them. Anoying.

*3. Even though I have the following entries in my snmp.conf file, it does
not load all the mibs modules and it is anoying to be adding "-m all" to
each command so see a human readable output:*

# egrep -v "^#|^$" /etc/snmp/snmp.conf
mibs ALL
mibdirs /usr/share/mibs/ietf:/usr/share/mibs/iana:/usr/share/mibs/netsnmp

# snmpwalk -v 2c -c public localhost

*Could someone put some lights on this?*


Thank you
