COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


- My review is based on the diff at [1]

- The security considerations section doesn't seem to
reflect the latest boilerplate. [2] Should it? I'm not
making this a discuss as it's a minor change to a MIB and
I accept that it's arguable that folks might not update
their SNMP security code whilst doing this. But I don't
think I've seen this case before (minor update to MIB
without changed security boilerplate) so maybe the IESG
should chat about it to decide if there's anything to be
done here.
