RE: Boilerplate

["Harrington, David" <dbh@enterasys.com>]

Hi,

The SNMPv3 RFCs have arrived. They are STD62, in RFCs numbered 3410 through 3418.

I have updated the boilerplate below accordingly. Please review this proposal, so we can make the new boilerplate available from the O&M web pages.

Thanks,
dbh

------------ proposed new boiler plate for MIB documents -----------
 
1. The Internet Standard Management Framework
 
   For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current
   Internet-Standard Management Framework, STD62, please refer to 
   section 7 of RFC 3410 [RFC3410].

   Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
   the Management Information Base or MIB.  MIB objects are generally
   accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
 
   Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the
   Structure of Management Information (SMI).  This memo specifies a MIB
   module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58,
   RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
   [RFC2580].
