Creating a Device Profile with the MIB Compiler

Device Profile
A device profile contains the SNMP objects (OPC items) required for the SNMP
interface of the OPC Server. It maps SNMP variables and SNMP traps on the
OPC interface. Device profiles are stored in profile files.
MIB Files and MIB Compiler
MIB files (Management Information Base) are descriptions of SNMP variables and
SNMP traps in a form specified by Internet standards. There are standard MIBs
specified for devices with the same functionality and device/vendor-specific MIB
files.
You create a device profile with the MIB compiler from an existing MIB file.
