The error is suggesting that it can't find that specific MIB. If it is an option that is showing up under the MIBs in the wizard can you check under Admin>System Extensions>Manage Mibs and see if the MIB is listed there?

If this is the case could you let us know what distribution of Linux you're machine is on and what version of CSP/XI you currently are running.

MIB search path: /usr/share/httpd/.snmp/mibs:/usr/share/snmp/mibs
Cannot find module (ENTITY-MIB): At line 18 in /usr/share/snmp/mibs/PAN-ENTITY-EXT-MIB.my

Usually it will generate a unique id token when setting it up so thinking about it I don't think that you will need to do this on the XI machine itself. Rereading the error itself its having an issue with the blank line following the x token. Could you attempt to remove that line and see if it no longer gives the error?

The first line suggests that there something is misconfigured in your /etc/snmp/snmp.conf file. The first thing I would do is to check the file and look to see if the token is in fact there and if it is check to see if there is any unnecessary spaces. The error is also suggesting that it is missing required MIB's to do the SNMP walk. I'll attach some documentation that should help. Let us know if this fixes the issue.
