1. Introduction
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it defines objects for managing ethernet-like
interfaces.
This memo also includes a MIB module. This MIB module extends the
list of managed objects specified in the earlier version of this MIB:
RFC 1650 [11].
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [13].
2. The SNMP Network Management Framework
The SNMP Network Management Framework consists of several components.
For the purpose of this specification, the applicable components of
the Framework are the SMI and related documents [2, 3, 4], which
define the mechanisms used for describing and naming objects for the
purpose of management.
