Document: draft-schoenw-snmp-ether-01.txt
Reviewer: David L. Black
Review Date: 25 Sept 2006
IESG Telechat date: 28 Sept 2006 

Summary:
This draft is basically ready for publication, but has nits
that should be fixed before publication.

Comments:
This is a short update to (even shorter) RFC 1089 to define a TC
and provide somewhat better explanation of a few things, written
by a couple of experts.  The -02 version is in the queue to be
posted, but I reviewed the -01 version due to time constraints.

The -01 version would be ok to publish as-is, but I concur with
Cullen Jennings's comment that use of RFC 2119 language is
appropriate, and I specifically suggest a couple of "MUST"s in
the second paragraph of Section 3.2 to require the use of EtherType
hex 814C and use of SNAP with LLC.  I happen to know from history
that IEEE is somewhat sensitive about proper EtherType usage.

IANA needs clarification of what to do about SNMP domain
registration - see the IANA comment in the I-D tracker.

Thanks,
--David
