      SNMP MIB extension for Multiprotocol Interconnect over X.25

Status of this Memo

   This RFC specifies an IAB standards track protocol for the Internet
   community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
   Please refer to the current edition of the "IAB Official Protocol
   Standards" for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
   Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

Abstract

   This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
   for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets.
   In particular, it defines objects for managing Multiprotocol
   Interconnect (including IP) traffic carried over X.25.  The objects
   defined here, along with the objects in the "SNMP MIB extension for
   the Packet Layer of X.25"[8], "SNMP MIB extension for LAPB"[7], and
   the "Definitions of Managed Objects for RS-232-like Hardware Devices"
   [6], combine to allow management of the traffic over an X.25 protocol
   stack.

1.  The Network Management Framework

   The Internet-standard Network Management Framework consists of three
   components.  These components give the rules for defining objects,
   the definitions of objects, and the protocol for manipulating
   objects.
