3.14. Changes from RFC 1158
Features of this MIB include:
- The managed objects in this document have been defined
using the conventions defined in the Internet-standard
SMI, as amended by the extensions specified in [14]. It
must be emphasized that definitions made using these
extensions are semantically identically to those in RFC
1158.
- The PhysAddress textual convention has been introduced to
represent media addresses.
- The ACCESS clause of sysLocation is now read-write.
- The definition of sysServices has been clarified.
- New ifType values (29-32) have been defined. In
addition, the textual-descriptor for the DS1 and E1
interface types has been corrected.
- The definition of ipForwarding has been clarified.
- The definition of ipRouteType has been clarified.
- The ipRouteMetric5 and ipRouteInfo objects have been
defined.
- The ACCESS clause of tcpConnState is now read-write, to
support deletion of the TCB associated with a TCP
connection. The definition of this object has been
clarified to explain this usage.
- The definition of egpNeighEventTrigger has been
clarified.
- The definition of several of the variables in the new
snmp group have been clarified. In addition, the
snmpInBadTypes and snmpOutReadOnlys objects are no longer
present. (However, the object identifiers associated
with those objects are reserved to prevent future use.)
- The definition of snmpInReadOnlys has been clarified.
- The textual descriptor of the snmpEnableAuthTraps has
been changed to snmpEnableAuthenTraps, and the definition
has been clarified.
- The ipRoutingDiscards object was added.
- The optional use of an implementation-dependent, small
positive integer was disallowed when identifying
instances of the IP address and routing tables.
