MIB Items in SNMP Connector

The MIB tree control, shown in the figure below, is used to load and unload MIBs from the database. The MIB tree is a dictionary that contains the translations between numbers and names (and all the information about the names). Unlike traditional dictionaries, the structure of this one is a tree, because of the tree structure of the SNMP data. This structure makes it easier to find an item inside this MIB dictionary.
