RE: Last Call: Textual Conventions for Additional High Capacity D ata Types to Proposed Standard

[Dan Romascanu <dromasca@lucent.com>]

The following text at Section 6 is too restrictive in a manner that is both
unnecessary and not consistent with other text (e.g. at Section 5)

The following textual conventions are defined to support unsigned 64-bit
data types for HC-RMON [HC-RMON].

I suggest replacing this text by the following:

The following textual conventions are defined to support unsigned 64-bit
data types for  MIBs such as the HC-RMON MIB [HC-RMON].

The reason is that other MIB documents should feel free to use the Textual
Conventions described by this document freely, until a permanent solution is
standardized as part of some evolution of the SNMP SMI.

Regards,

Dan
