MIB Browser Changelog

What's new in MIB Browser 2.12

Dec 17, 2020
  • Problem fixed:
  • Some SNMP enabled devices (e.g. Cisco N5K-C5672UP) in SNMPv3 mode with enabled encryption (privacy) may send SNMP packets with “junk” data.
  • This could cause high CPU load or access violation errors while processing such packets. Fixed.

New in MIB Browser 2.09 (May 22, 2020)

  • minor corrections for Charts window

New in MIB Browser 2.08 (May 11, 2020)

  • New SNMP v3 related code (encryption) works faster and uses less CPU resources.
  • Note: As usually we do not recommend 3DES encryption mode.
  • 3DES slower and less secure than AES encryption

New in MIB Browser 2.00 (Feb 26, 2018)

  • SNMPv3 support, authorization, encryption
  • SNMP profiles
  • More responsive GUI

New in MIB Browser 1.80 (Dec 28, 2017)

  • The following operations can retrieve data much faster when large set of
  • counters requested and SNMP v2c is used:
  • Get table
  • Get row
  • Get next N counters

New in MIB Browser 1.70 (Apr 22, 2016)

  • Browser offers 3 new tools:
  • SysInfo:
  • This utility connects to target SNMP agent and retrieves up to date system information such us OS description, uptime, disk free space, memory usage network interfaces
  • Table:
  • Connects to target SNMP agent and retrieves current values of all counters that belong to specified table
  • Charts:
  • Utility displays real-time charts for one or several counters up to 4 counters)
  • MibBrowser does not use Windows API for SNMP requests anymore, this helps to avoid some Windows problems and allows you to choose protocol version on any Windows platform (note: HostMonitor does not use Windows API for SNMP related tests since version 6)

New in MIB Browser 1.50 (Jan 27, 2016)

  • Redesigned MIB file compiler works much much faster
  • Now compiler's "smartmode1" is enabled by default, this helps to avoid compiling problems experienced with some MIB files
  • Also fixed problems related to SNMP Traps v1 specified in some MIB files
  • Progress indicator
  • Get Row function retrieves entire row from a table, e.g. GetRow for OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.1 will provide list of ALL network interfaces installed on target system
  • Get Next function (available in SNMP Get window) allows to adjust number of items in 1 request. E.g. each request may retrieve 5 next items
  • Other GUI improvements
  • New standard database includes over 15,000 nodes from over 100 MIB files
