swithport mapper gives the error "device doesnt support BRIDGE-MIB"

I am evaluating your product with force10 switch(E300).When i use the switch port mapper it gives error
device doesnt support BRIDGE-MIB.I have attached the the ethereal capture from the machine where i have
installed solarwinds
Is this a bug ??

  •  Terryboy - ifyou look at packet #12 where we are asking for RFC1493-MIB:dot1dTpFdbTable, you can see where the device responds with the next OID is it supports (packet #13), which is outside of the RFC1493-MIB:dot1dTpFdbTable. 

    We are currently working on a newer version of the switch port mapper that will attempt to use Q-BRIDGE-MIB:dot1qFdbTable as well, which your device might support.
