Title: [newbie] Trying to use FREENAS mib
Post by: mgiammarco on December 31, 2020, 12:41:20 PM
Hello,
netxms is very cool, I am learning it!
I have added FREENAS-MIB.txt, compiled it.
Now I see that my freenas node is still marked as "generic".
So I add snmp.driver attribute "FREENAS" and I do "configuration full".
But the freenas node is still "generic"
What have I done wrong?
Thanks,
Mario

MIB files only provide a more convenient way to work in MIB explorer.

SNMP driver is selected from a number of drivers present in the system. List of drivers is available in docs: https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/snmp.html?highlight=snmp%20driver
These drivers provide special handling for some devices that are not handled well by generic driver.
