Hi Wilson,

Below I have 5 points as the review.

Some things, I found.

1) Abstract.

'The Differentiated Services MIB (RFC3289) is extended to ....'

Not sure if it is tthe correct wording. It would sound it
provides new DIFFSERV functionality.


2)  Section 2.3

Last sentence. I beleive it could be wise to add what may happen if the 
other
elements of the DIFFSERV-MIB are part of the implementation. 
Especially, they may
bge 'linked in' from the 'expected' DIFFSERV-MIB tables.

3) object docsSubMgtCpeControltable.

The DESCRIPTION clause says, 'adding four WRITEable objects', but the 
table has
5 objects. Just a nit, but maybe better to be corrected that the fifth 
is
a read-only.

4) object docsSubMgtCpeControlReset.

What happens to the entries used to index in the docsSubMgtCmFilterTable
where they are associted by docsIfCmtsCmStatusEntry if the 'reset' is 
done.
I guess they are 'garbage-collected; if not used anymore. Although, it 
is an
implementation detail it could be wise to add words for this.

5) object docsSubMgtSubFilterDownStream, docsSubMgtSubFilterUpStream,
docsSubMgtCmFilterDownStream, docsSubMgtCmFilterUpStream and
docsSubMgtFilterGroup.

Is it correct that there are only 255 filters possible? On what
is the limit based? If there is no real limit, except for implementation
detail the Integer (0..255) subset is not needed.
