Using proprietary MIB files with the SNMP traps extension

[AntonioSousa]

If you develop your v2 extension, you can include proprietary MIB files, according to https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/extend-dynatrace/extensions20/data-sources/snmp-extensions/sn...

But, if you use the SNMP traps, you will get the traps into the logs, and there will be no way of getting the more friendly OID names.

Now, the same link above specifies that there are directories that have those MIB files, as can be seen below.

The question is if we can put our proprietary MIB files there, and if they will be appeaar in Logs with a more familiar OID name?

Custom MIBs can be added by creating a custom extension. Link to the documentation https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/extend-dynatrace/extensions20/data-sources/snmp-extensions/sn.... Unfortunately, we recently found a bug and it will not work as designed. The team is working to solve it. Temporary workaround: the MIB files can be dropped into the default folder with MIB files.

1. Linux: /opt/dynatrace/remotepluginmodule/agent/res/mib-files/
2. Windows: C:\%PROGRAMFILES%\dynatrace\remotepluginmodule\agent\res\mib-files
