15 | Libsmi is a C library that allows network management applications to access | |
16 | MIB module information through a well defined API that hides the nasty | |
17 | details of locating and parsing SMIv1/v2 MIB modules. | |
18 | ||
19 | Libsmi supports exact and iterative retrieval functions for all major SMIv1 | |
20 | and SMIv2 constructs (except the AGENT-CAPABILITIES statement). | |
21 | ||
22 | The layered concept of libsmi allows to add further methods to retrieve MIB | |
23 | information from persistent repositories. In fact, besides the SMIv1/v2 MIB | |
24 | file parser an additional parser for `SMIng' is included. Both parsers are | |
25 | built on flex/bison grammar specifications. | |
26 | ||
27 | SMIng is a research project concerned with the definition of a MIB module | |
28 | language that is semantically fully compatible with SMIv2 but avoids many | |
29 | problems of the ASN.1 based SMI versions. | |
30 | ||
31 | Included with the library, there are three tools that make use of libsmi: | |
32 | Smiquery allows simple queries of single MIB module items. Smilint allows | |
33 | to increase the verbosity of the parser(s), so that MIB modules can be | |
34 | checked for syntax and semantic errors. Finally, smidump can be used to dump | |
35 | MIB modules. Currently, SMIng and SMIv2 are supported as output formats, so | |
36 | that SMIv2 <-> SMIng conversions are possible. | |
