The core of the libsmi distribution is a library that allows management applications to access SMI MIB module definitions. On top of this library, there are tools to check, analyze dump, convert, and compare MIB definitions. Finally, the distribution contains a steadily maintained and revised archive of all IETF and IANA maintained standard MIB and PIB modules. The library is internally divided into two layers. The upper layers represent the API to applications that make use of libsmi. Furthermore, the upper layer holds the MIB information in common internal data structures. The lower layer contains the drivers that implement the access to persistent MIB module repositories. Currently drivers for SMIv1/v2 MIB module files and for SPPI PIB module files exist. A driver for an early draft of SMIng is also present.

To install libsmi, run the following command in macOS terminal (Applications->Utilities->Terminal)
sudo port install libsmi
To see what files were installed by libsmi, run:
port contents libsmi
To later upgrade libsmi, run:
sudo port selfupdate && sudo port upgrade libsmi
