NAME
     smixlate - translate SMI/SPPI identifiers

SYNOPSIS
     smixlate [ -Vhm ] [ -c file ] [ -p module ] [ -l level ] module(s)

DESCRIPTION
     The  smixlate  program is used to translate identifiers and especially OIDs
     into a more human readable format.

OPTIONS
     -V, --version
	    Show the smixlate version and exit.

     -h, --help
	    Show a help text and exit.

     -r, --recursive
	    Report errors and warnings also for recursively imported modules.

     -c file, --config=file
	    Read file instead of any other (global and user) configuration file.

     -p module, --preload=module
	    Preload the module module before reading the  main	module(s).  This
	    may  be  helpful  if an incomplete main module misses to import some
	    definitions.

     -l level, --level=level
	    Report errors and warnings up to the given severity level.	See  the
	    smilint(1)	manual	page  for a description of the error levels. The
	    default error level is 3.

     -a, --all
	    Replace all  OIDs  including  OID  prefixes.  Without  this  option,
	    smixlate will only translate OIDs with a corresponding notification,
	    scalar, column, row, or table definition.

     -f, --format
	    Preserve  the input format as much as possible by inserting/removing
	    white space characters.

     module(s)
	    These are the modules to be loaded for the	subsequent  translation.
	    If	a module argument represents a path name (identified by contain-
	    ing at least one dot or slash character), this is assumed to be  the
	    exact  file  to  read.  Otherwise,	if a module is identified by its
	    plain module name, it  is  searched  according  to	libsmi	internal
	    rules. See smi_config(3) for more details.

EXAMPLE
     This  example  translates	numeric OIDs in the input text into a more human
     readable format.

       $ echo "what is this oid? 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.3" |
	 ./smixlate -l 0 /usr/local/share/mibs/ietf/*
       what is this oid? ifType
       $
