I can certainly assert, as chair of the SNA DLC MIB WG, that the unanimous concensus within our group was to request that these objects be added to the RS-232 MIB. They appeared, without exception, in every vendor- specific SDLC MIB submitted, but we all agreed that they were really physical-level objects. Its very simple: One can NOT support SDLC without those objects. We have a number of vendors implementing and planning to implement the SDLC MIB. These implementors have to get that information from somewhere. We certainly prefer that it is from the standard MIB module at the appropriate layer, the RS-232 MIB.
