Mmmm... which document are you looking at?
The   that I have says (on page 15)
      dot3OamMaxOamPduSize OBJECT-TYPE
        SYNTAX      Unsigned32 (64..1518)
        UNITS       "octets"
        MAX-ACCESS  read-only
        STATUS      current
        DESCRIPTION
          "The largest OAMPDU that the OAM entity supports.  OAM
          entities exchange maximum OAMPDU sizes and negotiate to use
          the smaller of the two maximum OAMPDU sizes between the peers.
          This value is determined by the local implementation.
          "
        REFERENCE   "[802.3ah], 30.3.6.1.8"
        ::= { dot3OamEntry 4 }

So it does not have (0..1518) and the DESCRIPTION clause also does not tell
me what a value of zero would mean ??
I tried to find it in the 802.3ah spec, but have not found it (yet).
