About the Data ONTAP MIBs

A MIB file is a text file that describes SNMP objects and traps. Data ONTAP provides two types of MIB. MIBs are not configuration files. Data ONTAP does not read these files and their contents do not affect SNMP functionality.

Data ONTAP provides two MIB files:
  • A custom MIB (/etc/mib/netapp.mib)
  • An Internet SCSI (iSCSI) MIB (/etc/mib/iscsi.mib).

Data ONTAP also provides a short cross-reference between object identifiers (OIDs) and object short names in the /etc/mib/traps.dat file. This is useful for creating user-defined traps.
