Downloading the MIB using the command prompt

This section describes how to download the FE-FIREEYE-MIB to SNMP managers that run on Microsoft Windows, Linux, and Apple devices. The MIB file is retrieved using a program that connects using port 22, which is normally used for protocols such as SSH, SCP, and PSCP. Because file-level access is denied by policy, the direct path to the MIB file needs to be specified.

To download the MIB to Windows devices:
  1. Download the pscp.exe tool (available from PuTTY download page).

  2. Navigate to a command prompt window.

  3. Change to the directory in which you downloaded the pscp.exe tool:

    cd Downloads
  4. Copy the MIB file from the appliance:

    pscp.exe -r -scp admin@<appliance><applianceIPAddress>:/usr/share/snmp/mibs \Temp\mibs\
  5. When prompted for the password, enter admin.

    The files are copied to the \Temp\mibs directory on the Windows device.

  6. Change to the mibs directory:

    cd C:\Temp\mib
  7. Load the MIB into an SNMP browser or tool, or open the MIB file:

    vi FE-FIREEYE-MIB.txt
To download the MIB to Linux devices:
  1. Copy the MIB file from the appliance using the OpenSSH client:

    scp -r admin@<appliance><applianceIPAddress>:/usr/share/snmp/mibs /usr/<userDirectoryName>
  2. When prompted for the password, type admin.

    The files are copied to the mibs directory that resides in the /usr/<userDirectoryName> directory.
