Seeta:

Some other differences:

- not all RFCs contain MIBs
- not all MIBs are RFCs
- an RFC follows a standards track, and is administered by IETF
- a MIB does not have to follow a standards track. It may be proprietary, or
may not be made into an RFC.

What is difference between a RFC and a MIB? Are they interconvertible, if so
what are the guidelines to be followed?
