The purpose of libsmi is to

- give network management applications a concise programmer-friendly interface
  to access MIB module information, 
- separate the knowledge on SMI from the main parts of management applications,
- allow to add new kinds of MIB repositories without the need to adapt
  applications that make use of libsmi.
