RE: A draft adsl2 line MIB

Clay et al,
 
I agree with the sentiment for a separate TC MIB. Precedent was made early on to separate the IanaIfType MIB from the ifType of the IF-MIB for ease of maintenance and to allow a different organization to have ownership. Then the ATM working group broke out its TC so the standard became rfc2514/2515 for the TC and ATM MIBs. 
 
It can be named ADSL-TC without the suffix MIB too.
 
More work to manage it, but useful.

Hi Moti and Menachem,

Thank you for working a MIB for the next generation ADSL!

Let us know when you are ready for comments; I think this version of the draft is meant to primarily spark a discussion at the IETF meeting.

One thing that may warrant a discussion at the meeting is the placement of the TCs, especially the Adsl2TransmissionModeType.  It may be a good idea to consider putting some or all the TCs into something like an  ADSL-TC MIB module.  The primary reason is that they may need to be adjusted over time. I would expect that it would be faster to turn a TC MIB module than an ADSL MIB module.  For example, I would suspect that there may be new bits defined for the Adsl2TransmissionModeType as time goes on.
