Parse Error importing SNMP MIB file

I am trying to import a MIB File using the TOP Server SNMP Driver but see the following error:

Unable to add MIB Module definition file <Pathway>.

Reason:

Parse Error <MIB Filename>. Could not add object: <Object Name>; parent object: <Parent Object Name> undefined. Line: <Line Number>

This indicates a problem with the MIB File syntax, most likely with the parent object OID specified at the line number provided in the error message. Verify that the OID references a valid, and that they reference a IANA registered private Enterprise. TOP Server expects the OID to have the form of:

{1.3.6.1.4.1.<Subsidiary reference>}

or

{enterprises.<Subsidiary reference>}

If either of these do not fix the problem, please send a copy of your MIB file, as well as a screenshot of the error, to support@softwaretoolbox.com, and we will be happy to help.
