Hi. Eduardo, Thanks for efforts to make this MIB better. > A CMTS may not allow the creation of additional Interval Usage Codes > for a modulation profile being defined at Initialization time. Does "may not" here mean "MUST NOT" or "MAY"? <edo> A bit clear saying : "A CMTS MAY allow...." </edo> ... I think it is 'A CMTS MAY NOT allow ...." In the ECN OSSIv2.0-N-04.0121, The CMTS MAY have pre-defined modulation profiles (entries in the DOCS-IF-MIB docsIfCmtsModulationTable) with the purpose of being used by operators as is or as templates to define other modulation profiles. CMTS pre-defined modulation profiles entries MAY be read-only to prevent users from accidental modifications. Adding or creating entries with new docsIfCmtsModIntervalUsageCode values and the same docsIfCmtsModIndex values as the pre-defined modulation profiles MAY result in error. Thanks a lot !
