    /*
     * This array structure defines a representation of the
     *  MIB being implemented.
     *
     * The type of the array is 'struct variableN', where N is
     *  large enough to contain the longest OID sub-component
     *  being loaded.  This will normally be the maximum value
     *  of the fifth field in each line.  In this case, the second
     *  and third entries are both of size 2, so we're using
     *  'struct variable2'
     *
     * The supported values for N are listed in <agent/var_struct.h>
     *  If the value you need is not listed there, simply use the
     *  next largest that is.
     *
     * The format of each line is as follows
     *  (using the first entry as an example):
     *      1: EXAMPLESTRING:
     *          The magic number defined in the example header file.
     *          This is passed to the callback routine and is used
     *            to determine which object is being queried.
     *      2: ASN_OCTET_STR:
     *          The type of the object.
     *          Valid types are listed in <snmp_impl.h>
     *      3: RONLY (or RWRITE):
     *          Whether this object can be SET or not.
     *      4: var_example:
     *          The callback routine, used when the object is queried.
     *          This will usually be the same for all objects in a module
     *            and is typically defined later in this file.
     *      5: 1:
     *          The length of the OID sub-component (the next field)
     *      6: {1}:
     *          The OID sub-components of this entry.
     *          In other words, the bits of the full OID that differ
     *            between the various entries of this array.
     *          This value is appended to the common prefix (defined later)
     *            to obtain the full OID of each entry.

 * 
 * The SNMPv2-Trap PDU contains at least a pair of object names and
 * values: - sysUpTime.0 whose value is the time in hundredths of a
 * second since the netwok management portion of system was last
 * reinitialized.  - snmpTrapOID.0 which is part of the trap group SNMPv2
 * MIB whose value is the object-id of the specific trap you have defined
 * in your own MIB.  Other variables can be added to caracterize the
 * trap.
 * 
 * The function send_v2trap adds automaticallys the two objects but the
 * value of snmpTrapOID.0 is 0.0 by default. If you want to add your trap
 * name, you have to reconstruct this object and to add your own
 * variable.
