I'm trying to add to an existing, private MIB and I'm having no end of
trouble. I was previously pointed to the "MIB lint" sort of tool at
http://www.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de/bin/smitools.cgi and it's very nice. I
cleaned up quite a few little things that have been in my MIB for some
time. However, I'm left with two things I don't understand.
First, smitools.cgi says:
mibs/MY-MIB.txt:171: [5] {identifier-external-redifined} warning:
redefinition of identifier `IF-MIB::ifIndex'
/usr/local/share/mibs/ietf/IF-MIB:185: [6] {previous-definition} info:
previous definition of `ifIndex'
Where I've got:
ifIndex OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX InterfaceIndex
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION "...."
::= { portTestEntry 1 }
I don't understand MIB scoping but I'd have expected I was creating this
object in *my* MIB, not as a "global" Why the conflict?
Second, smitool.cgi complains:
mibs/MY-MIB.txt:82: [4] {group-membership} warning: node `p1status'
must be contained in at least one conformance group
mibs/MY-MIB.txt:94: [4] {group-membership} warning: node `p2status'
must be contained in at least one conformance group
(and 8 other objects, too). Confirmance group? What's that?
