Definitions of Textual Conventions and OBJECT-IDENTITIES for ATM Management
Alternative Format: Original Text Document
RFC 2514 ATM TCs and OBJECT-IDENTITIES February 1999
When designing a MIB module, it is often useful to define new types
similar to those defined in the SMI. In comparison to a type defined
in the SMI, each of these new types has a different name, a similar
syntax, but a more precise semantics. These newly defined types are
termed textual conventions, and are used for the convenience of
humans reading the MIB module. This is done through Textual
Conventions as defined in RFC 1903 [1]. It is the purpose of this
document to define the set of textual conventions available to ATM
MIB modules.
When designing MIB modules, it is also often useful to register
further properties with object identifier assignments so that they
can be further used by other MIB modules. This is done through the
OBJECT-IDENTITY macro defined in RFC 1902 [2]. This document defines
OBJECT-IDENTITIES available to ATM MIB modules.
Note that for organizational purposes OBJECT IDENTITIES previously
defined in RFC 1695 have been moved to this specification and no
longer appear in the revision of RFC 1695 [3]. However, the original
OBJECT IDENTIFIERs have been preserved.
For an introduction to the concepts of ATM connections, see [3].
