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?

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?

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.

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.

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.

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?

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
3. FTP - you can use preferred FTP client to create required folder structure and upload required files.

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.

Everyting put on default is deleted on reboot of the service.

The MIBs must be put on a new directory called "mib" on same folder where is "default"
is the same for "images" and "packages" directory for images and package files.

Oh yeah, using .../default/mibs does NOT work.

But to be clear, on an RB1100 at least, putting them in <dude_data_directory>/files has always works to find mibs, without issue in my experience. If <dude_data_directory> is a disk (and it should be), the MIBs are persisted after reboot.

I believe your right that <dude_data_directory>/files/mibs should work – but I recall that NOT working sometime in some versions & why I started just using "files" under the Dude data directory.

It may also help that the mibs have a .txt file extension, I've also made sure they end in .txt not .mib. I recall some issue with the file types at some point too.

In my case, the module shows just fine. Does not seem to be a path problem.
But is is grayed out and not loaded when doing a snmp-walk, as seen in the image below.
syno-mib.png
Tried all snmp versions 1,2,3.
I can see basic snmp info, mostly regarding network interfaces, but nothing contained in that specific mib, like temperatures, fans, etc.

Ah... Just tested this (with IP camera + custom MIB). When I look at the "Table" tab, it doesn't show anything for some devices under V7 Dude, but the other tab shows names/attributes from the camera's MIB. So it must have found the MIB but in my case, it doesn't show anything in "Table" (even though clearly the walk found all the things I'd expect)

Does the "List" or "Tree" tab show any Synology things in your case?

LOL! Might have even read that back then, and now burned in my head.

And I think @inteq is the "Table" shows, well, tabular MIB data. I've never used with that view much, generally use "Tree" in the snmpwalk. Perhaps the Synology MIB doesn't have any thing Dude considers a "table"?

As noted above, on V7 it shows nothing in the "Tables" view for a camera, and on V6 it crashed get when trying to double-clicking a entry (for LLDP) in the "Table" view for a Chateau:

"Perhaps the Synology MIB doesn't have any thing Dude considers a "table"?"
Might be. As stated above a bit, I have another Dude that I have upgraded from ROS 6.3somethhing all the way to 7.7, without any extra mibs, that can read more from Synology, disk like temperatures, fans, etc. This would be the 1st time trying to use this mib.
Tree view is also empty.
I have a spare 1100AHx4 Dude Edition and will install some old ROS 6.something to see if I have more luck and indeed something got lost between stock Dude versions.

Seems I am starting to forget things, or if you don't use them for too long, you forget them either way.
For future reference. No clue if the extra mibs are being used.
Synology CPU temperature:
CPU-T: [oid("1.3.6.1.4.1.6574.1.2.0")]C
Synology HDD temperature:
HDD1-T [oid("1.3.6.1.4.1.6574.2.1.1.6.1")]C
HDD2-T [oid("1.3.6.1.4.1.6574.2.1.1.6.2")]C
etc
Found the oids by reading the docs, but weirdly, snmp-walking from Dude does not show them.

You can also use MIB Browser tool (https://www.ireasoning.com/mibbrowser.shtml) to load the MIB, and if you set the Synology as target, you can verify the MIB actually works OUTSIDE of the Dude. That at least confirm the OID for MIB match the specific Synology you're using.
