Some more questions about NHRP-MIB

page 7:
EntryStatus value 'invalid'. This isn't a defined type. If used, set request
will presumably fail. Was another value intended?

page 13:
RFC should be 1695 (AToMMIB, Sonet is 1595 from memory)

pg13:
nhrpIfLinkAddrType probably shouldn't have a DEFVAL. The agent should
probably determine this through some other means.

pg 13:
nhrpIfNetworkId description: NHRP requests are not permitted to cross
to NBMA networks with different IDs

pg 15:
nhrpIfAuthType: DEFVAL should be none(0), i.e. using named form?

pg 16:
nhrpServerEntry SYNTAX should be NhrpServerEntry

pg 17:
SEQUENCE definition should be named NhrpServerEntry (missing 'er').
Last syntax should be RowStatus, not Validation

pg 18:
nhrpServerRowStatus shouldn't have DEFVAL; I believe RowStatus by definition
is mandatory. Either way 'null' seems wrong, active/createAndGo?

pg 19:
NhrpAddrEntry suggested additional attributes :-

nhrpAddrNextHop	IpAddress	-- NextHop IP address for this DestNetAddr
				-- device which actually has DestLinkAddr

nhrpAddrDestLinkAddrType	AddressType
		-- RFC1700 Assigned number value from packet

nhrpAddrDestLinkLengthBits	INTEGER (0..? 8*20 ?)
		-- NHRP defines length to be in bits, not necessarily
		-- byte aligned, thus can't use octet sting length


pg 20:
nhrpAddrEntryType 
- ACCESS should be read-only and set by agent depending on source
- DEFVAL snmp(6) not snmp(4)

pg 22:
NhrpStatsEntry additional attributes:
nhrpStatsInNegativeReplies	Counter32
nhrpStatsOutNegativeReplies	Counter32

(Also "," missing from INDEX after nhrpStatsIpAddr,
extra "," after InRegisters, OutRegisters, LoopDetecteds)
