Hi,
What happens if you remove the BROTHER-MIB?
Regards
Anders

Anders,
        Thanks for the reply. Yes I have added the modules and path while working around the bug that I mentioned (see configuration file contents at the bottom of my post).

I have tried going into the directory and addidng it, I have also tried selecting it from the parent directory. Neither of these helped.


Thanks

GC

Hi,
Have you added the mibs under Edit->preferences->Name resolution->SMI (MIB and PIB) modules?
Changing the path was a bit "fiddly" you have to point to the dir not enter it I think.

Anders

Subject: [Wireshark-users] SNMP OID resolution not working


I am trying to inspect SNMP packets but wireshark doesn't resolve the OID names at all.

I am running Wireshark 1.10.0 (the current download on wireshark.org for 64bit Windows). The "about" screen says "with SMI 0.4.8".

An example of how an OID appears is "1.3.6.1.2.1.43.5.1.1.2.1"
All the help pages I have found when searching have as a starting point the OID in the form of "SNMPv2-SMI::enterprise....." but mine are only showing up as numbers without any text prefix.

Nothing changes, and no errors are given when I right click on the OID and select "Resolve Name".

Also, there appears to be a bug when specifying the MIB paths. If I try to specify "C:\Program Files\Wireshark\snmp\mibs" then it changes it to "C:\users\username". I have copied all my MIBs to c:\mibs as Wireshark will accept "C:\mibs" without changing it.

I have also been through the MIBs I am interested in and added their dependencies (as well as the dependencies of the dependecies, and so on). It is possible that I have missed one, I guess. (I have not deleted any references to MIBs that were there after a default Wireshark install)

I believe that the MIBs work, as I have managed to resolve the same OIDs on a linux box with snmpwalk.

I have also played with the order of the MIBs, although I am unsure as to how this works as there appear to be some circular dependencies.

I have run out of things to try to get these to resolve. Is there a setting somewhere that I have missed?

Note that I am particularly interested in the Printer-MIB and the BROTHER-MIB.


Thanks

GC
