New MIB Packages released for Unbrowse SNMP

What is a MIB Package ? 

A MIB Browser is only as brainy as the number of MIBs you have installed in it. Out of the box, Unbrowse SNMP comes only with a few standard MIBs such as RFC1213-MIB , IF-MIB and a dozen others. You then compile in whatever MIBs your particular network element (router, switch, server) requires.

If you dont want to hunt around and compile the MIBs yourself, you can install “MIB Packages”. A MIB Package is a special ZIP file that contains pre compiled MIBs along with the corresponding text MIB file. Unleash Networks creates these MIB packages by tracking the public MIBs of popular vendors.
