Re: Last WG call for FDDI MIB draft

[Anil Rijsinghani <[e-mail]>]

With the last WG call for comments on the FDDI MIB completed, I am
sending the FDDI MIB (SNMPv1 as well as SNMPv2 versions) on behalf
of this WG to IESG/NM for consideration as Draft Standard, as
well as a request to move RFC 1285 to historical status.

My thanks to all those who responded with their implementation
experience on RFC 1512.  The final draft of the FDDI MIB, which will be
available shortly, incorporates a couple of editorial comments from
Jeff Case (one to correct grammar in the abstract and another to
clarify further one of the "changes from RFC 1512" in section 5 -- see
below).

Thanks and regards to all,
Anil

That sounds better.. I'll update the drafts accordingly.

In section 5, in the description of the change to fddimibPATHTMaxLowerBound,
I had noted that the nsec number as well as the equation had been updated.
I'll add the fact that an = sign was added.
