How do I add MIBs to the dude

I am new to the dude how do I add mibs to the dude

2

Go to the ‘Files’ section and load the mib there…

3

Do we upload this file from inside The Dude or Winbox?

I have been trying to drag and drop the MIB into the files list in The Dude and it isn’t working, there also isn’t an upload option?

4

The wiki states: Your custom uploaded mibs/images/etc need to be stored in: “(data-path)/files/” directory AND After file upload it will take some time for mibs/images to become available on client side for use in labels/maps/etc.

Thanks, I have uploaded the file now.

How long do you have to wait? Hours or days?

6

1 minute

rename the file from “.mib" to "-mib.txt” for work

7

That bit of renaming the files I omly could deduct from the screen picture shown in the Wiki after the explaination by Rextended. It would be nice if one could in the Wiki the exact way of working to import the files correctly.

8

It’s still not working, I dropped 4x MIBS in over 10 hours ago and its not picked up any of them. I have even restarted The Dude service several times

9

I cannot drag and drop them into “dude/file/default/mibs”

I get error message “Couln’t change file <UBNT-AirMAX-MIB.txt> - action failed (6)”

10

Did you use the Dude interface as can be seen in the Wiki page I linked too?

I have never used it myself so I can’t be absolutely certain on this. You have to put it in the “(data-path)/files/” and that is lower in the directory list. To me you have put it in the Flash directory so they have to be in the /dude/files/ directory.

11

I assume it has worked by now!?

12

It seems that folder

dude/files/default/mibs

is read-only.

  1. I have created folder
dude/files/mibs/liebert

and uploaded all mibs files there.
2. Renamed files from .MIB to .MIB.txt
And now I can see all mibs inside MIB nodes in Dude.

Thank you!

I just brought up a fresh dude CHR server on 6.42 and I’m having the same problem. Using WinSCP it says the file system is read only, can’t do it in winbox ether. The directory we add them to is /dude/files/default/mibs correct?

Update: I see you leave out default in the last post now.

So its uploaded but after 45min I don’t see the file in in but I don’t see the Siklu appearing under the Modules tab.

14

I’m using a UIAS-RM RB3011, I tried to send the UBNT-UniFi-MIB.txt file to the dude / files / default / mibs folder using WinSCP and says it’s read-only.

How to send a mib file to dude? I tried in ways following wiki, forum and I did not succeed in any.

sergioaugusto,

As described in the posts above,

dude/files/default/mibs

is read-only folder.

For your mibs you should create a separate folder, for example:

dude/files/mibs

and put there your files.


Thank you!

One question.. i upload de MIB file and can view on Dude the entire mib node of the module, all parameters explained.. all ok. But, when i make a snmp-walk over the device that uses this MIB, the values of this module are not visible: i can see IF,SNMP,RFC module values..but not the specific module values of this MIB. Is it possible that Dude let be capable of loading the MIB but then not being able to read these values ​​from the device?

@stmx38


how do you create folders? Im new mikrotik

18

We have some ways to upload files to the ROS:

  1. Winbox - drag-and-drop mibs/product.txt folder in the dude/files and you will get dude/files/mibs/product.txt file at the end.
  2. SCP
scp product.txt admin@192.168.64.2:dude/files/mibs/product.txt
  1. FTP - you can use preferred FTP client to create required folder structure and upload required files.
19

Same exact issue.
I am trying to monitor some Synology devices on a fresh ROS 7.7 Dude install. Uploaded all Synology mibs and I can see them, but when snmp-walking I get no useful info.
Funny thing is that on an old Dude install that I upgraded from ROS 6.something to 7.7 I can see much more info from a Synology device, without any extra mibs.
Me thinks that some functionality in regards to mibs is missing in ROS 7 vs 6

I think The Dude searches for new MIBs in the dude/files directory for custom MIBs. I recall that copying them directly into dude/default/files/mibs does NOT work. At least that’s been my experience in both V6 and V7.
