NAME
       smixlate - translate SMI/SPPI identifiers

SYNOPSIS
       smixlate [ -Vhm ] [ -c file ] [ -p module ] [ -l level ] module(s)

DESCRIPTION
       The  smixlate  program  is used to translate identifiers and especially
       OIDs into a more human readable format.

OPTIONS
       -V, --version
              Show the smixlate version and exit.

       -h, --help
              Show a help text and exit.

       -r, --recursive
              Report errors and warnings also for  recursively  imported  mod‐
              ules.

       -c file, --config=file
              Read  file  instead of any other (global and user) configuration
              file.

       -p module, --preload=module
              Preload the module module before  reading  the  main  module(s).
              This  may  be  helpful  if  an  incomplete main module misses to
              import some definitions.

       -l level, --level=level
              Report errors and warnings up to the given severity  level.  See
              the  smilint(1)  manual page for a description of the error lev‐
              els. The default error level is 3.

       -a, --all
              Replace all OIDs including OID prefixes.  Without  this  option,
              smixlate will only translate OIDs with a corresponding notifica‐
              tion, scalar, column, row, or table definition.

       -f, --format
              Preserve the  input  format  as  much  as  possible  by  insert‐
              ing/removing white space characters.

       module(s)
              These  are  the modules to be loaded for the subsequent transla‐
              tion. If a module argument represents a path name (identified by
              containing at least one dot or slash character), this is assumed
              to be the exact file to read. Otherwise, if a module is  identi‐
              fied  by its plain module name, it is searched according to lib‐
              smi internal rules. See smi_config(3) for more details.

EXAMPLE
       This example translates numeric OIDs in the  input  text  into  a  more
       human readable format.

         $ echo "what is this oid? 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.3" |
           ./smixlate -l 0 /usr/local/share/mibs/ietf/*
         what is this oid? ifType
         $
