SYMPTOMS
In chapter 11 of the Windows NT 4.0 Server Resource Kit, several example OIDs for simple network management protocol (SNMP) are given without the leading dot.
For example table 11.3 gives an example of:
Internet MIB-II iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2 1.3.6.1.2.1
This should be listed as:
Internet MIB-II iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2 .1.3.6.1.2.1
When you query using an incorrect oid you will receive the following error:
When you use SNMP Monitor (Snmpmon.exe) from the Windows NT Resource Kit, SNMP monitor will simply not collect data.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, use the syntax above that includes the leading dot (.)
