Mike and Bert, Find below the first response to all the comments we received to date on the pcdn MTA MIB draft 01. It addresses Bert's comments as well as Mike's comments (#1 thru #10). We will send our responses to technical comments #11 next week. In the meantime, if you have any reaction on how we've addressed these so far, let Eugene or myself know. Thanks, Eugene and Jean-Francois. --- Comments from Bert Wijnen received on 7/22/03 On Tue, 22 Jul 2003, Wijnen, Bert (Bert) wrote: > > 1.

Mike, note that ID-nits does not prohibits the reference at all: it simply says: # Do not add a numbered reference in the ID boilerplate to RFC 2026 # (makes it harder for the RFC editor to process the document when # they strip off the ID boilerplate) So as long as the reference is in the form [RFC2026], I think it is ok.

In addition, we deleted 2 security consideration paragraphs on 2 readable objects: pktcMtaDevEndPntCount and pktcMtaDevHttpAccess. After more reviews, we do not believe those objects actually pose real threats given that the endpoint naming convention is in the spec and easy to figure out and that pktcMtaDevHttpAccess text was not really relevant. > It would also > be good to make consistent statements about retry objects, > RowStatus objects, and so on in the different lists. > > Finally, this section includes only the standard "deployment > of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT RECOMMENDED." It has > been my understanding that versions of SNMP prior to SNMPv3 > are not permitted for DOCSIS devices. If that's true, then > the last paragraph should say that instead of the standard stuff. For MTAs, anything other than SNMPv3 is not recommended in our current specs - at least that is true today for PacketCable. The issue we're facing is some service providers still have SNMPv2. So we decided it is sufficient to leave this section as-is per the recommendation of http://www.ops.ietf.org/mib-security.html and take the 2 last paragraphs of mib-security.html as-is. > 7.)
