Please comment. MRV plans a line of products which will simultaneously support both copper and fiber ports on the same managed device. A single MIB supporting any transmission medium seems straightforward to me. This appears to be what IEEE is doing in Annex 30A and 30B. If I'm overlooking something, please let me know. -Grant -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2003 9:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Hubmib digest, Vol 1 #216 - 3 msgs Send Hubmib mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/hubmib or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at [email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Hubmib digest..."
