SMC Agent platform MIBS created

Due to the lack of Sun releasing MIBs for the platform modules, I have created them myself. They are very elementry MIBs that are useful really for just mapping OID numbers to names. They have been tested with the net-snmp tools. I don't have one of every piece of hardware, but they have been tested on a large number (U2/U5/U10/U60/X1/V100/420R/280R/V880/E3500/E4500) and all the hardware module numeric ID's are mapping. There may be a couple mappings incorrect in the Workgroup Server module, as alot of that mapping had to be done by comparison, while most of the others were created automatically.

The MIBs are in my bundle of Sun MIB's at: http://www.misplaced.net/~btoneill/sun-mibs-0.9.tar.gz

Let me know if you have any questions.

An updated version has now been released with numerous fixes and quite a few additions. You can find the new version at http://www.misplaced.net/~btoneill/sunmib.html . Most notable of the fixes are in the mapping for traps OIDs. The original documentation from Sun that I used as a reference to create these MIBS were incorrect, they are now updated to what is actually returned from the client.

Also, can anyone from Sun tell me why non-standard (atleast non-standard as far as I can find) traps are being used out of MIB2? The SMC agent is sending out:

.iso.org.dod.internet.snmpV2.snmpModules.snmpMIB.snmpMIBObjects.snmpTrap.5.0

.iso.org.dod.internet.snmpV2.snmpModules.snmpMIB.snmpMIBObjects.snmpTrap.6.0

.iso.org.dod.internet.snmpV2.snmpModules.snmpMIB.snmpMIBObjects.snmpTrap.7.0

As far as I can tell, snmpTrap.5 is the snmp transport used (udp/tcp/etc), 6 appears to be the address of the remote host in binary. The only references I can find anywhere to 5 and 6 is a post on the tkined about hoping they are added when RFC1907 is updated. With snmpTrap.7 I can find no information anywhere on it, but it appears to hold the community string used in sending the trap.
