It probably basically works already; what you'll miss is identification of 
the model type (other than probably hpEtherSwitch.103 or thereabouts) in 
the Inventory.

But it's a good question, where do you get the MIBs from now?

There's a page here:

  http://h17007.www1.hp.com/us/en/support/software/misc.aspx

but it reckons the Networking Switch MIBs were updated Oct2009, which 
isn't very recent.  Maybe it is lying.

The UPGRADE file in the snmp-info mibs distribution says:

1. Get new MIBs from HP
    From: http://www.hp.com/rnd/software/MIBs.htm
          ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/networking/software

The http site redirects to something generic now.

The ftp site is still there, stuffed with things, including MIBs, but you 
probably need a good idea of what you're looking for in there.

Anyone got a clearer idea?

Jethro.
