Using MIB Importer

Paessler's MIB import and conversion tool is used to convert MIB files into OIDLIB files. PRTG will then be able to scan a device for available sensors. (In PRTG, you will add an SNMP Library sensor and use the new OIDLIB file.)

The download and more instructions are available at:
Paessler MIB Importer and Converter

Import Not Successful?

Please note: When importing a MIB file you might notice a message stating that OIDs were found successfully, yet none of them were useful for PRTG. In such cases, the MIB file does not include any counter information that can be used with PRTG. This can be the case if the MIB file only contains SNMP traps, double-index OIDs, tables, or other counters that cannot be processed by PRTG's SNMP sensors. If possible, please try with another MIB file.
