In answer to the 'is there a way to programmaticly' find that.
I'm not sure - - an example is for one of the Arista devices - it has an item in
Arista_Voltage_Sensors -> PowerSupply1 (or 2)
Within that is then the Voltage Sensor Overiew which has the Input Voltage Sensor (100711104) Volts and Status - -I want Volts.
I would assume it is in the MIB - but I have not explored to find the actual MIB OID yet.
When I click to look at the DataSources -
That takes me to the DataSource - Arista_Sensor_Voltage,
it looks like it is in the OID_MAP .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.2 for the description
and .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.4 for the Contained_in
I used to use GetIF for the SNMPWALK - and to use the MIB OID mapping to explore Tables.
As an Aside - why does the oid_map have mappings that for some start with '.1.3.6.1.' and yet the 'description' entry does not start with '.1' but with '1.' ?
If this is really an OID - I would expect to see them all have the same form - all start with a '.' and then follow the OID chain to the actual value.
