The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'Remote Network Monitoring Management Information Base' <draft-ietf-rmonmib-rmonfull-02.txt> as a Standard. This will obsolete RFC1757, currently a Draft Standard. This document is the product of the Remote Network Monitoring Working Group. This has been converted from SMIv1 to SMIv2. The IESG contact persons are Bert Wijnen and Randy Bush. Technical Summary This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP- based internets. In particular, it defines objects for managing remote network monitoring devices. This memo obsoletes RFC 1757. This memo extends that specification by documenting the RMON MIB in SMIv2 format while remaining semantically identical to the existing SMIv1-based MIB. While converting to SMIv2, the OwnerString was converted into an SMIv2 Textual Convention, and at the same time the DESCRIPTION clause has been improved to allow for UTF-8 based human readable strings. The text has been crafted such that existing NVT ASCII implementations continue to be compliant with the spec. Working Group Summary The working group reached consensus on this document Protocol Quality This document has been reviewed for the IESG by Randy Presuhn and by Bert Wijnen.
