Setting search preferences

This section describes how to define the MIB Manager preferences that are used to search for the MIB files.

To set the search preferences, click Preferences icon Preferences or, from the main menu, click File > Preferences, and then from the left pane of the Preferences window, click Search.

In the MIB Search Path field, set the search path to where the MIB files are located. The directories must be separated by a semicolon (;). Any subdirectories are searched automatically to locate dependant MIB files.

The default path includes the location of the base MIB files and the RFC MIB files that are packaged with MIB Manager. You can specify any new directories at the end of the default file path. This ensures the base directory is initially searched for dependencies containing the most commonly used MIBs, and then the rfc directory is searched for the less commonly used MIBs.
