snmp-mibs-downloader -------------------- To enable the net-snmp packages to use the downloaded MIBs you will need to comment out the following line from /etc/snmp/snmp.conf mibs : The un-commented line means load no MIBs, commenting it out means the SNMP library will attempt to load all MIBS it finds. See also: snmpd.conf(5) from the libsnmp-base package and snmpcmd(1) from the snmp package.
