  3.  General Documentation Guidelines

  

     In general, IETF standards-track specifications containing MIB

!    modules MUST conform to the requirements for IETF standards-track

!    RFCs documented in [RFC2223bis].  Because the version under review

!    will be an Internet-Draft, the notices on the front page will 
comply

!    with the requirements of 
http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.txt

!    and not with those of [RFC2223bis].  The rest of the requirements 
in

!    [RFC2223bis], however, do apply (see http://www.ietf.org/ID-

!    Checklist.html for additional details).

  

     Section 4 of [RFC2223bis] lists the sections that may exist in an

!    RFC.  The "body of memo" part of an RFC in general contains 
multiple

!    sections, and in a MIB document MUST contain at least the 
following:

  

      o MIB boilerplate section

  

--- 100,119 ----

  3.  General Documentation Guidelines

  

     In general, IETF standards-track specifications containing MIB

!    modules are subject to the same requirements as IETF 
standards-track

!    RFCs (see [RFC2223bis]), although there are some differences.  In

!    particular, since the version under review will be an 
Internet-Draft,

!    the notices on the front page MUST comply with the requirements of

!    http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.txt and not with those of

!    [RFC2223bis].  In addition, since the specification under review 
is

!    expected to be submitted to the IESG, it MUST comply with certain

!    requirements that do not necessarily apply to RFCs;  see

!    http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html for details.

  

     Section 4 of [RFC2223bis] lists the sections that may exist in an

!    RFC.  Sections from the abstract onward may also be present in an

!    Internet-Draft.  The "body of memo" is always required, and in a 
MIB

!    document MUST contain at least the following:

  

      o MIB boilerplate section

     The only difference between ZeroBasedCounter32/64 TCs and

their

     ZeroBasedCounter32/64 becomes exactly the same as Counter32/64.

     Thus, the preceding paragraphs/rules apply not only to 
Counter32/64,

     but also to ZeroBasedCounter32/64 TCs.

        17.) An IANA Considerations section (to be removed upon

        publication) was added, and the Open Issues section was removed.


  

+    The following changes were made to <draft-ietf-ops-mib-review-

+    guidelines-03.txt> to produce <draft-ietf-ops-mib-review-

+    guidelines-04.txt>:

+ 

+       1.)  The I-D boilerplate on the front page was updated to 
comply

+       with http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.txt.

+ 

+       2.)  The introductory part of Section 3 has been wordsmithed to

+       align it with http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.txt,

+       http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html, and RFC2223bis, and the

+       sub-sections have been re-ordered to match the order 
recommended

+       by RFC 2223bis for sections in an RFC.  As a result, the 
following

+       section numbers have changed:

+ 

+       -03 Section Number      -04 Section Number

+               3.4                     3.8

+               3.5                     3.6

+               3.6                     3.4

+               3.7                     3.5

+               3.8                     3.7

+ 

+       3.)  The instructions for copyright notices in Section 3.7 (and

+       also those in Appendix A) refer to RFC 3907 instead of RFC 
3667,

+       and the wording for the abbreviated notice used in 
IANA-maintained

+       was changed so that it agrees with RFC  3907.  In addition, the

+       requirement to check for the presence of a copyright notice on 
the

+       front page of a document has been deleted from Appendix A, 
since

+       Internet-Drafts no longer require such a notice.

+ 

+       4.)  The instructions for IPR notices in Section 3.8 (and also

+       those in Appendix A) now refer to RFC 3908 instead of RFC 3668.

+       In addition, these sections treat the notice as a SHOULD, since

+       the IPR notice is no longer required in Internet-Drafts 
(although

+       it is recommended)

+ 

+       5.)  Text has been added to Section 4.6.1.2 to clarify that 
there

+       is no longer a requirement to define a Counter32 counterpart 
for

+       each Counter64 object.

+ 

+       6.)  The Acknowledgments, Security Considerations, and IANA

+       Considerations sections have been relocated before the 
appendices,

+       as recommended by RFC 2223bis, and the Intellectual Property

+       Section has been relocated to the end of the document, as 
required

+       by RFC 2223bis (and in accordance with the practice in recent

+       RFCs).

+ 

+       7.)  Several previously unacknowledged individuals who have

+       provided helpful comments have been named in the 
Acknowledgments

+       section.

+ 

+       8.)  The IANA Considerations section is now non-null, and the

+       editor's note requesting that it be removed prior to 
publication

+       has been deleted.

+ 

+       9.)  The checklist items in Appendix A have been re-ordered to

+       match the order of presentation in Section 3.

+ 

+       10.) Appendix B now correctly lists the SYNTAX of

+       InetAddressPrefixLength as Unsigned32 (0..2040).

+ 

+       11.) The references to RFCs 3667 and 3668 were replaced by

+       references to RFCs 3907 and 3908, and the references to RFC

+       2223bis, RFC 2737bis and RFC 3291bis were updated to point to 
the

+       most current drafts.

+ 

+       12.) Several typos and spelling errors were corrected.
