	This option calls a plug-in that graphs the selected MIB object on the default host. Remark: If the object is indexed, the software asks you to select an index from the table. As an example, let’s take the ifinoctets.1 object in the above display, the software will ask you to use the OID instead of the name. If your choose No, the following window will be displayed.

MIB object registration is done only after a compilation and restart of LoriotPro.
