A general introduction on the UI of the SNMP Agent Simulator will help you to get familiar with the tool.
The image above depicts the primary window of WebNMS SNMP Agent Simulator. It consists of a menu bar, toolbar, left frame, and a right frame.
The menu bar displays a list of commands to perform various operations.
The toolbar displays buttons with images that act as shortcuts to the menu options.
The left frame holds the MIB tree. A MIB tree is a structure that displays all the loaded MIBs. The MIB tree enables to traverse the tree, view the loaded MIBs, and the definition of each node.
The right frame contains text fields to specify the basic parameters of the selected MIB node such as OID, access, syntax, node description, simulation type, scalar and table value and so on. It also contains a text area to display the results.
