Rules to flawlessly design template from SNMP device

• Create a proper snmpwalk dump using:

  snmpwalk -v2c -c public -ObentU localhost . > myagent.snmpwalk

• Validate files before loading them into simulator:

  datafile.py --source-record-type=snmpwalk --input-file=myagent.snmpwalk

• Create a custom dir containing all necesary mibs per vendor:

  cat << 'EOF' > /etc/snmp/snmp.conf
  mibs :
  mibdirs /usr/share/snmp/mibs/rfc:/usr/share/snmp/mibs/juniper:/usr/share/snmp/mibs/cisco:/usr/share/snmp/mibs/net-snmp:/usr/share/snmp/mibs/checkpoint
  mibs +ALL
  EOF

• Utilize vendor provided tools to download MIB packages for example:
  https://apps.juniper.net/mib-explorer/search.jsp
• Use netdisco-mibs
• Use AstroGrep to search which MIB provides the node name
• Save translated file to the home directory for faster contend search:

  snmpwalk -v 2c -c SRX5400 127.0.0.1:1161 . > ~/SRX5400.log

• Allways remember to specyfy walk from .!
• Use the mibs to browse the node description:

  snmptranslate JUNIPER-SRX5000-SPU-MONITORING-MIB::jnxJsNodeCurrentTotalSession -Td

The meaning of -ObentU:

-O OUTOPTS            Toggle various defaults controlling output display:
                        b:  do not break OID indexes down
                        e:  print enums numerically
                        n:  print OIDs numerically
                        t:  print timeticks unparsed as numeric integers
                        U:  don't print units
