# MibBrowser Class

The MIBBrowser class is used to parse SNMP MIB Module definitions.

## Syntax

**ipworkssnmp.mibbrowser()**

## Remarks

The MIBBrowser class allows easy loading and querying of definitions in the SNMP Management Information Base (MIB) specifications.

The [LoadMib](#mibbrowserloadmib-method) method allows loading of MIB modules, which get stored in an internal tree structure for further queries.

If modules reference (import) other modules, recursive loading of modules is performed automatically and/or controlled by the [ImportSymbols](#mibbrowserimportsymbols-event) event.

The MIB tree is navigated through the [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) method, which enables pointing to a node in the tree specified by [NodeOid](#mibbrowsernodeoid-property) and [NodeLabel](#mibbrowsernodelabel-property). Other node information is provided through the [NodeModuleName](#mibbrowsernodemodulename-property), [NodeFileName](#mibbrowsernodefilename-property), [NodeSyntax](#mibbrowsernodesyntax-property), [NodeType](#mibbrowsernodetype-property), and [NodeAccess](#mibbrowsernodeaccess-property) properties.

The node selector parameter in [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) can be a label such as "internet", an OID such as "1.3.6.4", a combination of the two: "iso.3.dod.internet", or a label in a particular module such as "RFC1213-MIB!interfaces".

Node children and successors are provided by the [ListChildren](#mibbrowserlistchildren-method) and [ListSuccessors](#mibbrowserlistsuccessors-method) methods. The individual node information is provided via the [MibNode](#mibbrowsermibnode-event) event.

Module traps are listed via the [ListTraps](#mibbrowserlisttraps-method) method. The individual trap information is provided through the [TrapNode](#mibbrowsertrapnode-event) event.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).ExactMatch Property

Controls the way the OID matching is done (complete or partial).

## Syntax

```text
isExactMatch(): boolean;
setExactMatch(exactMatch: boolean): void;
```

## Default Value

TRUE

## Remarks

If ExactMatch is set to True, the [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) method will try to find an exact match for the supplied selector. If not found, an exception will be thrown.

If ExactMatch is set to False, the [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) method will start from the root (iso) and will go as far as it can, finding the closest match for the requested node.

For instance, in SNMPv2-MIB sysUpTime is defined as "1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3". If ExactMatch is False, calling [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) with selector "1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0" will populate [NodeLabel](#mibbrowsernodelabel-property) with "sysUpTime.0" while the same call with ExactMatch set to True will fail since that exact OID is not defined in the MIB.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).NodeAccess Property

The access permissions for the selected node.

## Syntax

```text
getNodeAccess(): MibBrowserNodeAccess;

enum MibBrowserNodeAccess {
  accUnknown,
  accNoAccess,
  accReadOnly,
  accReadCreate,
  accReadWrite,
  accWriteOnly,
  accForNotify
}
```

## Default Value

0

## Remarks

The following is the list of values for NodeAccess:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | accUnknown |
| 1 | accNoAccess |
| 2 | accReadOnly |
| 3 | accReadCreate |
| 4 | accReadWrite |
| 5 | accWriteOnly |
| 6 | accForNotify |

This property is read-only.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).NodeDescription Property

Textual description of the selected node.

## Syntax

```text
getNodeDescription(): string;
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Because loading descriptions can consume unwanted resources, the class can control caching of descriptions in order to keep the memory footprint of the class as small as possible.

To disable caching, set the [CacheDescriptions](#CacheDescriptions) config setting to True. In this case, the class will only save the offset of the description in the MIB file in memory, and will fetch the textual description directly from the file only when required. When using caching, make sure that the path of the loaded modules does not change or the property will be unable to fetch the correct text description.

This property is read-only.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).NodeFileName Property

The absolute path of the file where the selected node is declared.

## Syntax

```text
getNodeFileName(): string;
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

It is possible for a node to be re-declared in other modules. In this case the property contains a comma separated list of file names where the selected node is declared.

This property is read-only.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).NodeFullLabel Property

The full label of the selected node.

## Syntax

```text
getNodeFullLabel(): string;

**Example:**

```text
MibParser.LoadMib(""SNMPv2-MIB"")
MibParser.SelectNode("1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2")
Debug.Print MibParser1.NodeLabel // prints "ifTable"

MibParser.SelectNode("1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1")

This property is read-only.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).config Method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

```text
async mibbrowser.config(configurationString : string): Promise< string>
```

## Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#config-settings-class-ipworkssnmpmibbrowser) for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#config-settings-class-ipworkssnmpmibbrowser), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).listChildren Method

Lists the immediate children of the selected node.

## Syntax

```text
async mibbrowser.listChildren(): Promise< void>
```

## Remarks

The [MibNode](#mibbrowsermibnode-event) event fires once for every SubId of the selected node and provides all info related to that SubId.

For instance, the following code:

```text
MibParser.LoadMib("RFC1155-SMI")
MibParser.SelectNode("internet")
MibParser.ListChildren()
```

 will generate the following output through the [MibNode](#mibbrowsermibnode-event) event:

```text
  directory    1.3.6.1.1
  mgmt         1.3.6.1.2
  experimental 1.3.6.1.3
  private      1.3.6.1.4
```

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).listSuccessors Method

Lists all successors of the selected node.

## Syntax

```text
async mibbrowser.listSuccessors(): Promise< void>
```

## Remarks

The [MibNode](#mibbrowsermibnode-event) event fires once for each successor of the selected node and provides all information related to it.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).listTraps Method

Lists all the traps defined in the loaded modules.

## Syntax

```text
async mibbrowser.listTraps(): Promise< void>
```

## Remarks

The [TrapNode](#mibbrowsertrapnode-event) event fires once for every trap and provides all info related to it.

For instance, the following code:

```text
MibParser.LoadMib("mib_ii.mib")
MibParser.ListTraps()
```

 will generate the following output through the [TrapNode](#mibbrowsertrapnode-event) event:

```text
  coldStart             0 snmp
  warmStart             1 snmp
  linkDown              2 snmp
  linkUp                3 snmp
  authenticationFailure 4 snmp
```

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).loadMib Method

Parses the file FileName and adds the parsed nodes to the collection of existing nodes.

## Syntax

```text
async mibbrowser.loadMib(fileName : string): Promise< void>
```

## Remarks

This method can be used to load and parse a MIB file into the class.

Some MIB modules contain references to other modules within their imports sections. When loading a MIB that contains external imports, the [ImportSymbols](#mibbrowserimportsymbols-event) event will fire for each external reference. These modules must be loaded if possible to generate a complete representation for the loaded MIB.

It is possible for the component to attempt to load all external references automatically. To do this, use [Config](#mibbrowserconfig-method) and set "*AutoLoadMibs=True*". Setting this configuration property causes the class to attempt to find and load any external references included in the current MIB. The class will only find external modules if they reside in the same directory as the current module. Alternatively, the class can load additional modules by calling LoadMib while inside the [ImportSymbols](#mibbrowserimportsymbols-event) event.

If the [AutoLoadMibs](#AutoLoadMibs) config setting is set to False, and no explicit action is taken to load necessary modules inside the [ImportSymbols](#mibbrowserimportsymbols-event) event, some symbols may remain unresolved. These symbols will not appear in the MibNode hierarchy until the module containing their definition is loaded. Order is unimportant when loading additional MIB modules. A complete list of unresolved symbols can be found by retrieving the [UndefinedSymbols](#UndefinedSymbols) config setting (separated by "\r\n").

Note that *FileName* also accepts MIB data. If MIB data is used, the class will expect the NodeFileName to be at the beginning of the string, surrounded by "[]". For example:

```text
[RFC-1215]RFC-1215 DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN......END
```

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).reset Method

Reset all properties of the class.

## Syntax

```text
async mibbrowser.reset(): Promise< void>
```

## Remarks

This method resets all of the node properties as well as the internal collection of parsed nodes.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).selectNode Method

Used to select individual nodes in the loaded MIB module(s).

## Syntax

```text
async mibbrowser.selectNode(selector : string): Promise< void>
```

## Remarks

SelectNode is used for selecting individual nodes and should be called before querying node information.

The *Selector* parameter can be a label such as "internet", an OID such as "1.3.6.4", a combination of the two: "iso.3.dod.internet", or a label in a particular module such as "RFC1213-MIB!interfaces".

Either '.' or ':' can be used to separate SubIds. If a SubId starts with "0x" or follows the ":" separator then its hexadecimal value is used. For instance, "0x1.0x3.0x6.0x1A" is the same as "1:3:6:1A".

All properties and methods of the class will operate on the selected node. For example, calling [ListSuccessors](#mibbrowserlistsuccessors-method) will only list the successors of the selected node.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).Error Event

Errors that occur while loading/parsing MIB modules are fired through this event.

## Syntax

```text
mibbrowser.on('Error', listener: (e: {readonly errorCode: number, readonly description: string}) => void )
```

## Remarks

*ErrorCode* contains an error code and *Description* contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the [Error Codes](#trappable-errors-class-ipworkssnmpmibbrowser) section.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).ImportSymbols Event

List of imported symbols and the respective modules where they are declared.

## Syntax

```text
mibbrowser.on('ImportSymbols', listener: (e: {readonly symbols: string, readonly moduleName: string}) => void )
```

## Remarks

The *Symbols* parameter is a comma separated list of all symbols that must be imported from *ModuleName*.

The module is loaded through the [LoadMib](#mibbrowserloadmib-method) method.

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).MibNode Event

This event fires once for every child or successor of the currently selected node when invoking ListChildren or ListSuccessors .

## Syntax

```text
mibbrowser.on('MibNode', listener: (e: {readonly nodeLabel: string, readonly nodeOid: string, readonly nodeType: number, readonly nodeTypeString: string, readonly nodeSyntax: number, readonly nodeSyntaxString: string, readonly nodeAccess: number, readonly nodeIndex: string, readonly nodeParentName: string, readonly nodeDescription: string, readonly nodeModuleName: string, readonly nodeFileName: string}) => void )
```

## Remarks

When calling either [ListChildren](#mibbrowserlistchildren-method) or [ListSuccessors](#mibbrowserlistsuccessors-method), the MibNode event will fire once for every child of the currently selected node. The [ListChildren](#mibbrowserlistchildren-method) method will cause the event will fire once for each of the immediate children of the current node. [ListSuccessors](#mibbrowserlistsuccessors-method) cause this event to fire for each of the immediate children of the current node, as well as the entire tree of successors of those children.

*NodeLabel* is the name or textual representation of the current node, and is unique to its siblings. The *NodeOid* is the OID of the listed node and uniquely identifies the node within the entire MIB. The remaining parameters offer additional information about the listed node.

Information about the listed node is only available through the **MibNode** event parameters. All class properties remain related to the currently selected node.

If a MibNode is declared in more than one file or module, then the *NodeFileName* and *NodeModuleName* parameters will contain a comma separated list of files/modules where the node is declared.

For instance, the following code:

```text
MibParser.LoadMib("RFC1155-SMI")
MibParser.SelectNode("internet") // OID 1.3.6.1
MibParser.ListSuccessors()
```

 will generate the following output through the event:

```text
  directory    1.3.6.1.1
  mgmt         1.3.6.1.2
  experimental 1.3.6.1.3
  private      1.3.6.1.4
  enterprises  1.3.6.1.4.1
```

# [MibBrowser](#mibbrowser-class).TrapNode Event

Lists module trap information.

## Syntax

```text
mibbrowser.on('TrapNode', listener: (e: {readonly trapName: string, readonly specificTrap: number, readonly trapEnterprise: string, readonly trapVariables: string, readonly trapDescription: string, readonly trapReferences: string, readonly trapModuleName: string, readonly trapFileName: string}) => void )
```

## Remarks

When calling [ListTraps](#mibbrowserlisttraps-method), the TrapNode event fires once for every trap found in the module.

The following are the descriptions of the event parameters:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| TrapName | The name of the trap (its label). |
| TrapSpecificTrap | The specific id of this trap. |
| TrapEnterprise | The defining entity. |
| TrapVariables | A comma separated list of the symbols that should be present inside the trap. |
| TrapDescription | A textual memo about the node. |
| TrapModuleName | The module that contains the trap definition. |
| TrapFileName | The filename of the MIB where the trap is defined. |

If a trap has been defined in more than one module or file, then *ModuleName* and *FileName* will contain a comma separated list of values.

# Config Settings (*class *ipworkssnmp.[mibbrowser](#mibbrowser-class))

 The class accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [Config](#mibbrowserconfig-method) method.

### MibBrowser Config Settings

**AutoLoadMibs**: Determines whether imported MIB modules are loaded automatically.When *true* (default), the class will attempt to automatically load MIB imports. Only the path of the current module will be searched.

**CacheDescriptions**: Controls caching of Node descriptions.The default value is *true*.

When *false*, the class will only save the offset of the descriptions from the MIB file in memory, and will fetch the textual descriptions directly from the file only when required. When caching is disabled, make sure that the path of the loaded modules does not change or the property will be unable to fetch the correct text descriptions.

When *true*, the class will save the full descriptions in memory, avoiding additional fetches to the MIB file but increasing the memory usage of the class. Useful if the location of the MIB file is subject to changes or if the file is provided directly to the [LoadMib](#mibbrowserloadmib-method) method rather than through a file path.

**CacheMibs**: Controls MIB module caching. If set to *true* (default), a file will never be loaded/parsed more than once.

**CheckNoKnownRoots**: Controls whether or not the class fails when a file with no known root is loaded.If set to *true* the class will fail with an error when [LoadMib](#mibbrowserloadmib-method) is called and no root node can be found for the nodes defined in the file. When this value is *false* (default), [Error](#mibbrowsererror-event) will fire with this alert.

**DisplayHint**: The DISPLAY-HINT property for the current node.This is set to the DISPLAY-HINT property for the current node specified in [NodeIndex](#mibbrowsernodeindex-property).

Note that this config is read only.

**MibExtensions**: Controls the file extensions that the component will search for.When loading a MIB file with AutoLoadMibs set to *true*, this configuration setting controls what file extensions the component will search to find imported symbols. The default value is ".mib", which means the component will search files with a .mib extension or with no extension. If you set the value to ".txt, .mib", it will also search files with a .txt extension.

**NodeIsColumnar**: Whether the current node is columnar.This setting may be queried after calling [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) or within the [MibNode](#mibbrowsermibnode-event) event to determine if the current node is columnar.

**NodeIsScalar**: Whether the current node is scalar.This setting may be queried after calling [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) or within the [MibNode](#mibbrowsermibnode-event) event to determine if the current node is scalar.

**ReleaseTempNodes**: Will release any temporary nodes stored by the component.When [ExactMatch](#mibbrowserexactmatch-property) is set to *false*, temporary nodes will be stored after [SelectNode](#mibbrowserselectnode-method) calls. Calling this method will release the stored temporary nodes (thus freeing up memory) and will also reset the current node back to the root node. Note that this method will not unload any previously loaded MIB files that you have loaded.

**ReturnEnumValues**: Comma-separated list of the current node's enumeration textual-conventions.If set to *true*, and the current node references an enumeration textual-convention, then the values of the enumeration will be returned in the following format:

"label1(Value), label2(Value), label3(Value)..."

**UndefinedSymbols**: Comma-separated list of nodes that have not been resolved.After loading a MIB file, this config can be used to list all MIB nodes that have no parent and are not the root node itself.

If an undefined symbol is found within the current MIB file, it will only print the symbol name. If the symbol is referenced from another module, it will print both the symbol name and the module name (like "symbolname MODULE-NAME").

For more information, please refer to the [LoadMib](#mibbrowserloadmib-method) method.

### Base Config Settings

**BuildInfo**: Information about the product's build.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

**CodePage**: The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

The following is a list of valid code page identifiers:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Identifier | Name |
| 037 | IBM EBCDIC - U.S./Canada |

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

- Product: The product the license is for.
- Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
- License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
- License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
- Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

**MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *true* to mask sensitive data. The default is *true*.

**UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *false*, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to *true* tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

 This setting is set to *false* by default on all platforms.
