LMP-MIB Module Compile Test
For anyone interested, I ran a test compile of the LMP-MIB module
extracted from draft-ietf-ccamp-lmp-mib-06.txt.
For the TE-LINK-STD-MIB "IMPORT" I used the module extracted from
draft-ietf-mpls-telink-mib-02.txt
The tests were run using the MG-Soft compiler, version 4.0, build 459.
There were only two minor problems due to "xxx" being used for values
with assignments pending from IANA.
In the LMP-MIB module I had to manually change the "mib-2 xxx" to "mib-2
113" here:
DESCRIPTION
"Initial version published as RFC xxxx (to be assigned by RFC
Editor)"
::= { mib-2 xxx } -- To be assigned by IANA (experimental 113 can
-- be used in the interim)
And in the TE-LINK-STD-MIB module I had to make a similar change of
"transmission xxx" to "transmission 114" here:
DESCRIPTION
"Initial version published as RFC xxxx (to be assigned by RFC
Editor)"
::= { transmission xxx } -- To be assigned by IANA (experimental 114
-- can be used in the interim)
With the "xxx"s out of the way, both modules compiled completed with no
errors or warnings.
After looking through a number of other drafts, I see this "xxx" place
holder for numeric values is used quite a bit.
It would be helpful, and cut down on the manual intervention needed to
run compile tests, if a numeric value (999?) were specifically defined as
"Pending assignment by IANA ("whatever ###" can be used in the interim)"
for use in draft documents. Any thoughts on that?
