SNMP Agents and MIB files

["Rob Writer" <piercedroo -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

Do any of you have any experience documenting MIB files for SNMP agents? Is 
there an automation tool, such as JavaDoc, to output documentation from 
source code from MIB files?

One component of our company?s product is a Simple Network Management 
Protocol (SNMP) agent that provides customers a single connection to an SNMP 
manager station, which monitors the resources used by their system. Part of 
the SNMP agent is the Management Information Base (MIB). MIBs are a 
collection of definitions that define the properties of the managed object 
within the device to be managed.

I am writing an integration guide, and some of the most important 
information for integration engineers is found in the MIB.

Any suggestions on extracting info from a MIB into a hardcopy doc? Any 
suggestions on delivery format for MIB reference docs? Any suggestions, 
anecdotes, or cautions would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob
