[Schwimmer, E. E *H. <EE...@hs...>]

Regarding the template construction;  really the only way to do it is
to browse the mib file, assuming you can get the right one from your
vendor.  There are some software mib browsers that make them more
palatable.

About the if_load problem;  Heh.  I forgot to multiply by 100
in the templates (I could tell you some stories about me
and math in college.  These are not happy stories).

You can fix it in your if_loads by changing these lines in the
transforms file from this:

ifInLoad        : MATH          : {ifInBps} / {ifBps}
ifOutLoad       : MATH          : {ifOutBps} / {ifBps}

to this:

ifInLoad        : MATH          : ({ifInBps} / {ifBps}) x 100
ifOutLoad       : MATH          : ({ifOutBps} / {ifBps}) x 100

Thanks for catching that!  I'll update the templates and re-up it
to the sf website.
