Section 3.2, second paragraph:

OLD:

   When serialized SNMP messages are sent in IEEE 802.3 frames (and in
   other IEEE 802 MAC frame types that can natively represent Ethernet
   type values), an Ethernet type field value of 33100 (hexadecimal
   814C) is used as the link layer protocol identifier.  In IEEE 802
   LANs that use LLC as the means of link layer protocol identification,
   such as IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs, the SNAP encapsulation method
   described in subclause 10.5 "Encapsulation of Ethernet frames over
   LLC" in [IEEE802] is used.
