Load Vendor Mibs

[cksrealm]

All

I have got some MIB's from our hardware vendor, as I am fairly new to the SNMP game I have a couple of questions. I have extracted the files into /usr/share/snmp/mibs and all the files are called xxxxx.mib. If I run a SNMPWALK on the device I have to use the following to get any readable stats from it.

snmpwalk -v2c -c xxxxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -M /usr/share/snmp/mibs/eqlmibs/eqlcontroller.mib eql

in order to get them to work, the eql at the end is the vendor "eql". However as I am interested in using these mib's for a MRTG based graphing I cant use this string, how do you "install" the mibs so that when a normal

snmpwalk -v2c -c xxxxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is run it uses the MIB's.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
