Jan -
Most of the MIB tree for Ascend is proprietary and not well
organized. This stems in part from the fact that the Cascade
engineers who originally wrote the Cascade MIB left the campany after
Ascend bought the company. Ascend's engineers have extended this MIB
in a haphazard fashion and the resulting pieces are not in much of a
hierarchy.
You best tool for determining OIDs is to use the MIB Browser in
CascadeView (actually HP OpenView's browser) to wander around the MIB
tree. There are at least some comment fields in some of the entries
to give a hint about what's there.
Good luck - for the most part I have had to hand code almost
everything I want to monitor out of Ascend's Switches. Ascend's
response when you ask for help is to try to get you to buy their
monitoring software.
