Re: FW: Minutes from the sming wg interim meeting, June6-8, 2002 in Washington DC

HI,

Note guys that there is a technical assumption in the following that
is not correct. That is that a zero valued sub-identifier cannot
occur in the OID for an object type. The only restriction that the
SMI has it that the last sub-id cannot have a value of zero. Thus,
any sub-id from the root (and even the root) can have a value of
zero.  For example, it would be valid to have the following
definition for an object type:

   foo OBJEC-TYPE
       ...
       ::= { 0 1 0 1 0 1 }

The rules are in RFC 2578, section 7.10 (last paragraph).

More comments later...
