CompTIA Linux+ XK0-006 (V8) Practice Question

During the rollout of a new monitoring strategy, a Linux administrator creates a custom MIB module called FOO-APP-MIB so that an in-house application can be polled by SNMP. After copying FOO-APP-MIB.txt to /usr/share/snmp/mibs/, the administrator runs:

snmptranslate -IR -Tp | grep -i foo

but nothing is returned. The file passes a syntax check and resides in the default MIB directory. Which action will MOST likely allow the net-snmp utilities to recognize the module without having to specify -m or -M each time?

  • Set the MIBS environment variable to +FOO-APP-MIB (or add mibs +FOO-APP-MIB to snmp.conf) so the library preloads the module.

  • Rebuild and install the Linux kernel with SNMP MIB loader support, then reboot the server.

  • Add /usr/share/snmp/mibs to the mibdirs directive in snmp.conf and restart snmpd.

  • Run mib2c -c FOO-APP-MIB to compile the MIB into a binary database before using snmptranslate.
