MIBS.DATA statement syntax

The MIBS.DATA statements can be used to specify character (usually called textual) names for MIB objects not defined in any compiled MIB supplied with z/OS® Communications Server. You can then use these character/textual names as the name of the objects on the osnmp command.

The format of a statement in this file is:
character_object_name object_identifier object_type
