Subject: V.35 and other rs-232-like interfaces
Moon commented to me after the meeting that the document now says in section 8.3: - If the router has RS-232 interfaces then the RS-232 [MGT:10] MIB MUST be implemented. The RS-232 MIB makes it clear that it is not really RS-232, it is RS-232-like - other V.24 interfaces such as V.35 and RS-422/423 (V.36/V.11) also are covered in the RS-232 MIB document. Should we change the statement to mandate implementation of the RS-232 interface for higher speed synchronous links? I will place my argument before the court: I suggest not, as the modem signals are not used on such interfaces in synchronous links anywhere near as much as they are used in asynchronous RS-232 interfaces, and therefore the MIB is less important. One could argue more strongly for a MAY or SHOULD in those cases than for a MUST. Having said which - what opinions are there? Should I add language for other V.24 interfaces? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= computers run on smoke, it if leaks out they won't run
