Hi Dave,
If I want to snmpwalk on a table/object say entPhysicalTable, then I need to 
give the OID of this table: like this way
bash-3.00$ snmpwalk -v 2c -c "public" 10.135.33.34 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1
Then it displays the correct data.

But If I put the snmpwalk syntax with the table name, I get error:
bash-3.00$ snmpwalk -v 2c -c "public" 10.135.33.34 entPhysicalTable
entPhysicalTable: Unknown Object Identifier (Sub-id not found: (top) -> 
entPhysicalTable)
bash-3.00$
So to work for this, what I need to do? As Table name is much more comfortable 
to do in stead of using OID as each time, I need to search the OID. So is there 
any way to use this object name in stead of this OID?

With regards,
Biswajit

What error?
What object name?

If you want us to help you, you *must* give us something to work with.
"Things don't work" isn't a lot of use.   Details please.

Have you installed the relevant MIB files?
See the FAQ entry  "How do I add a MIB"
