Coexistence between version 1 and version 2 of the Internet-standard Network Management Framework

          RFC 1452    Coexistence between SNMPv1 and SNMPv2   April 1993


          1.  Introduction

          The purpose of this document is to describe coexistence
          between version 2 of the Internet-standard Network Management
          Framework, termed the SNMP version 2 framework (SNMPv2) [1],
          and the original Internet-standard Network Management
          Framework (SNMPv1), which consists of these three documents:

               RFC 1155 [2] which defines the Structure of Management
               Information (SMI), the mechanisms used for describing and
               naming objects for the purpose of management.

               RFC 1212 [3] which defines a more concise description
               mechanism, which is wholly consistent with the SMI.

               RFC 1157 [4] which defines the Simple Network Management
               Protocol (SNMP), the protocol used for network access to
               managed objects.
