How to Add a Separate MIB Specification for ntRegPerf Variables

You can put ntRegPerf variables in a separate MIB specification file to avoid directly manipulating the MIB file. You can save time and effort by making changes to a MIB specification file, which is much smaller than empire.asn1. This avoids recompiling and reloading the entire empire.asn1 file.

To add a separate MIB specifications for ntRegPerf variables, complete the following process:

1. Edit your own MIB specification file (for example, ntregperf.asn1) to include the new ntRegPerf MIB variables that exist under the Systems Management Empire MIB ntregperfGroup.
2. Perform a test compile of the ntregperf.asn1 file to make sure there are no syntax errors. This procedure is specific to your management system and its corresponding MIB compiler.
3. Import the ntregperf.asn1 file to your management system software. This procedure is specific to your network management station and its corresponding MIB compiler.

   Note: If you do not reimport the MIB file, your management system software will not be able to access the new MIB objects.
