Hi all,

I have to poll an SNMP device and provide support to two different MIBs, depending on the device's software version. In most parameters, I have used dynamic OIDs to allow for this behavior however, there is a discreet parameter that I'm having trouble adjusting.

In the first image you can see that, in an older MIB version, there are 7 possible values, which are then mapped to a set of display values in a discreet parameter. However, on the second image (related to a newer MIB version), there are 9 possibilities and the translation to the display values is different.

I’ve tried to fix this issue by using dependency Ids (parameter with the device's software version) and values:

But this is not working as I expected. DIS validator shows duplicated param major issues and it seems that the display value of the parameter will always be the last one in the discreet list for a given value (i.e., value 3 is assigned to both “Charging” and “Low”, but despite the newer MIB version (dependencyValue=”7”) being in use and not the older one (dependencyValue=”1”), the result is “Low”).

Is there an alternative approach in situations like these or is this the correct one and I’m just doing something wrong? Note that the solution must be applicable to DataMiner version 10.1.0.0-11319. I have also thought about creating an extra parameter to read the value, but that would damage alarm templates associated with this specific parameter.

Thank you in advance!
