The IETF modem management MIB was not widely supported by the community of modem manufacturers. A second modem MIB was developed within the ANSI TIA TR30 committee, I believe this was approved and released in 1995 with the status of a US standard. TR30 is attended by almost all of the US modem manfacturers and hence is generally a better place to develop modem standards. The TIA MIB was developed to map closely onto the ITU V.58 modem management standard, as was the new V.25ter extended AT command set. This means that the same basic semantics may be used for control of a modem regardless of whether SNMP, CMIP or AT commands are used. There are several obvious advantages stemming from this:- (i) The behaviour of the modem is not required to be different for SNMP vs other protocols (ii) It is easy to translate SNMP or CMIP commands to AT+ format to interface to modems that don't have embedded agents I also have a draft DMTF MIF based on the same V.58 standard and could complete and distribute this if there is any interest.
