Charlie,

One brief comment, the text field that repressents the SCOPE value
should be a typed string to allow for the encodings supported by the
service location protocol.

    Code   Len
   +-----+-----+----+-----+-----
   |  79 |  n  |Type| Scope ...
   +-----+-----+----+-----+-----

Where the Type field is choosen from the MIBEnum values allocated by the
IANA and as specified by the service location protocol.
