SNMP MIB Browser & OID Lookup

The SNMP MIB Browser is a powerful tool for network administrators and monitoring professionals to explore, search, and understand SNMP Management Information Base (MIB) data and Object Identifiers (OIDs).

Features​

  • MIB Tree Visualization: Browse the hierarchical structure of MIB objects
  • OID Translation: Convert between numeric OIDs and human-readable names
  • MIB Search: Quickly find MIB objects by name, OID, or description
  • MIB Upload: Import custom MIB files for your specific devices
  • Common MIB Database: Access frequently used MIBs from major vendors

How to Use​

  1. Basic Browsing:

    • Navigate the MIB tree using the expandable tree view
    • Click on any node to view its details
    • Use the search bar to find specific MIB objects

  2. OID Translation:

    • Enter a numeric OID to see its human-readable name
    • Enter a MIB object name to find its OID
    • View complete object details including syntax and access

  3. MIB Upload:

    • Click the upload button to import custom MIB files
    • The tool will validate dependencies automatically
    • Successfully uploaded MIBs are added to the tree

Examples​

  • System Information: Browse 1.3.6.1.2.1.1 (SNMPv2-MIB::system) to view basic system information
  • Interface Statistics: Explore 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2 (IF-MIB::ifTable) for network interface data
  • TCP Connections: Check 1.3.6.1.2.1.6.13 (TCP-MIB::tcpConnTable) for TCP connection states

Tips​

  • Use the search function to quickly find objects in large MIBs
  • Upload vendor-specific MIBs for complete device monitoring
  • Check dependencies when uploading custom MIBs
  • Bookmark frequently used OIDs for quick access

Common Issues​

  • Missing Dependencies: Ensure required base MIBs are loaded first
  • Invalid MIB Format: Verify MIB file syntax before uploading
  • Unknown OIDs: Check vendor documentation for proprietary MIBs

Advanced Features​

  • Bulk Operations: Upload multiple MIBs at once
  • Export Functionality: Save MIB data for offline use
  • Custom Views: Create personalized views of frequently used OIDs
  • Dependency Resolution: Automatic handling of MIB dependencies
