How can I get the GSS mibs from the box ?

[michael.e.reid]

Hi, whenever I try to FTP the mibs from the /mibs directory on the GSS I am unable too.

When I connect I am put in the /home directory and cannot seem to change directory to /mibs ?

I aslo cannot find the mibs on cisco.com.

Has anyone been able to do this, the cisco website suggests that we can ftp the mibs to another location.

cheers,

Mike

Mike,

DISMAN-SCHEDULE-MIB.txt

DISMAN-SCRIPT-MIB.txt

Gilles, this is what I see.

It mentions that there is no such local file or directory which makes me suspect something on the GSS is wrong/misconfigured ?

[Gilles Dufour]

what about a 'mput *'.

Does it work ?

Gilles.

[michael.e.reid]

No, I do get the option to 'put' some files but it is not the files in the /mibs directory. It is the files in the /home directory.

Even though I issued the cd /mibs command successfully at the CLI ?

When I try to change directory to /mibs from the ftp prompt it does not work

ftp> mput *

mput etc? n

mput gss-1.2.2.0.3-k9.upg? n

Mike,

what GSS version are you using ?

I used 1.2.2

Gilles.

[michael.e.reid]

Hi Gilles,

Yes, we are using 1.2(2.1.3)

cheers,

Mike

Michael,

I'm assuming you did a cut-and-paste of your FTP session. If so, you are missing the 'X' in AGENTX-MIB.txt. Just an observation.

Jim

[michael.e.reid]

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your comments. Just retried with the missing X and same result :o(

ftp> put AGENTX-MIB.txt

local: AGENTX-MIB.txt remote: AGENTX-MIB.txt

local: AGENTX-MIB.txt: No such file or directory

In an earlier post you state that you tried to "lcd /mibs". That changes directory on the client end, not the GSS. You should be entering "cd /mibs" or "cd mibs" to change directory on the GSS.

Try that to see if you get better results.
