Sorry that this took so long
- SMICng tells me that Gauge32 is being used without being IMPORTED
- object etherWisDeviceTxTestPatternMode starts ENUM at zero.
I see the other INTEGER based ENUM does too
I know it is a CLR, but if it is no problem, then why not start
at 1 as recommended by RFC2578?
- thinking aloud: would it be good to do 2 MODULE COMPLIANCES?
- one etherWisReadOnlyCompliance which is basically the one you now
have
- one etherWisFullCompliance that does not specify the min-access to
read-only
But I am not sure, cause we do not allow just read-only to the writable
objects in this MIB module, while we do allow sonet objects to be
read-only. Maybe I do not understand exactly why?
- Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 talk about requirements to implement pieces
of other MIB modules. I see some of it (from sonet mib) back in the
MODULE-COMPLIANCE. Should we not just include all of the required
objects from other MIB modules in the MODULE-COMPLIANCE?
- etherWisDeviceRxTestPatternErrors is a read-write Gauge32
If I understand it correctly, then you can only SET a value of zero
If this is a correct understanding, then I would expect to see that
specified in the MODULE-COMPLIANCE with a WRITE-SYNTAX Gauge32(0)
- In the security section, it would be good to also say someting
about (non-)vulnerability of read-only objects
Editorial/nits
- RFC-Editor no longer accepts more taht 5 authors on front page
see http://www.rfc-editor.org/policy.html
- Not sure RFC-Editor will accept WAN as acronym in title
see: http://www.rfc-editor.org/policy.html
- pls expand acronyms when they are first used. For example sect
3 PCS, PMA, PHY
see: http://www.rfc-editor.org/policy.html
- It would be good to add the wg mailinglist info to the DESCRIPTION
clause of the MODULE-IDENTITY
- You talk in various MIB objects about ifAdminState, but I think the
correct descriptor is ifAdminStatus
- etherWisSectionCurrentJ0Transmitted
While it is a value "to be transmitted"
WOuld it be good to reflect that in the descriptor, maybe
etherWisSectionCurrentJ0ToBeTransmitted
You have a few more of those
Questions:
- Can you explain why in sections 3.8.1, 3.8.2, 3.8.3 and 3.8.4
you use SHALL and not MUST ??
- Do we know if/when the IEEE normative document will be final
so that the normative reference can be resolved?
Thanks,
Bert
