Re: [Technical Errata Reported] RFC2981 (3798)

Hi -

I think the existing text is correct, and that the
proposed erratum should be rejected.

The existing text effectively says that if neither the
boolean(1) bit nor the threshold(2) bit of mteTriggerTest
is set, then the value assigned to mteTriggerSampleType
doesn't matter.  This is indeed how it is intended to
function.

Of course, I invite others to examine the proposed erratum.

>mteTriggerThresholdDeltaRising was added to mteTriggerThresholdTable from the version draft-ietf-disman-event-mib-09.txt and mteTriggerThresholdTable can both deal 'absoluteValue' and 'deltaValue', so mteTriggerSampleType has mean for 'boolean' only. (mteTriggerSampleType has no changed from draft-ietf-disman-event-mib-06.txt)
