Subject: proposal for new types in SNMPv2
I'd like to request two new types for snmpv2. These would be very useful in the FDDI MIB work currently in progress. o Integer64 - for 64-bit quantities that increase at too rapid a rate to use Integer32 and poll (FddiMsgTimeStamp and FddiTransitionTimeStamp, 64-bit objects measured in 80 nsec units) A guideline for the use of this type, as in the Counter64 definition, would probably be a good idea as well. o Unsigned Integer - we are restricted in the Fddi MIB to using only (0..2147483647), thus unable to represent half the possible range. (I assume Gauge could not be used due to its requirement to latch) thanks, Anil
