Mibs for F5 Traps dont receive in SIM 5.1

Hello,
I have registered the MIBS for F5 cin SIM 5.1.
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15832 Feb 3 17:11 F5-BIGIP-COMMON-MIB.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22542 Nov 4 00:23 F5-BIGIP-COMMON-MIB.mib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 146592 Feb 3 17:11 F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 184279 Nov 4 00:23 F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB.mib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 351238 Feb 3 17:11 F5-BIGIP-LOCAL-MIB.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 442187 Nov 4 00:23 F5-BIGIP-LOCAL-MIB.mib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 220517 Feb 3 17:11 F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 274907 Nov 4 00:23 F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB.mib

But the the device is discovered by System Type Unknown. And the Traps from F5 are not listed in the events. The traps are received on the sim host by looking with tcpdump.

What can I do?

Thanks

Re: Mibs for F5 Traps dont receive in SIM 5.1

The MIBs compiled into HPSIM are for decoding traps not identifying devices.
You can add SNMP device types.

Also check that the community names on the F5 are correctly set up and that it allows access via the HPSIM server.
