# How to obtain your sysDescr and sysObjectID

MIB browser, a free tool bundled within OpManager assists you with loading and browsing MIBs in addition to performing SNMP related operations.

OpManager requires sysOID and sysDescr to develop a template that is custom crafted for your device which is later associated to your device during the discovery process.
