Hello
I am the author of NetHorus, a Network Management System written in
Ruby, using
Rails, and originally written in PHP/perl.
There are several limitations in Ruby’s SNMP support, most notably in
MIB
parsing. For anything but simple single-OID GETs, this is is a
significant
problem. MIB files contain, amongst other things:
- Structure information about table constructs
- Syntax information for returned OIDs (units, enumerations etc.)
- Descriptions of OIDs
Is anyone working on enriching the SNMP support to include MIB
intelligence,
possibly using the existing libsnmp from Net-SNMP?
Peter
