DESCRIPTION
       init_mib() loads the mib.  Returns 1 upon success, 0 otherwise.

       load_mib() reads the specified mibfile, assuming that the mibfile  for‐
       mat  is	the  version supplied.	Possible versions are OLD_CMU_SNMP_MIB
       and SNMPV2_MIB.

       read_objid() converts the input string (format ".iso.org." or ".1.3.6")
       into an oid, and places the oid into the array output.

       print_objid()  prints  the  specified OID, replacing numbers with their
       textual equivalents from the  MIB  whenever  possible.	sprint_objid()
       does the same, but places the resulting text into buf.

       print_variable()	 prints	 objid	followed  by  the  value  of the vari‐
       able_list variable to stdout, using any information / conversions spec‐
       ified  in  the  MIB.   sprint_variable()	 does the same, but places the
       resulting text into buf.

       print_value() prints the value of the variable_list variable to stdout,
       using   any   information   /   conversions   specified	 in  the  MIB.
       sprint_value() does the same, but places the resulting text into buf.

       print_variable_list() is a shortcut for calling print_variable()	 on  a
       variable_list that contains the proper name.

       print_variable_list_value()  is	a  shortcut  for  calling  print_vari‐
       able_value() on a variable_list that contains the proper name.

       print_type() prints the type of the specified variable_list.

       print_oid_nums() prints the numeric value of O to stdout.

RETURN VALUES
       read_objid() returns 1 upon success, 0 otherwise.

ENVIRONMENT
