ifType enumerations

[Deirdre Kostick <[e-mail]>]

SNA DLC mibbers --

Heads up on this note from the if-mib working
group. (They are the group responsible for
re-working the ifTable from MIB II).
If you plan on adding any ifTypes, now's
the time.

The current ifType enumerations are attached.
There's one for sdlc and for iso88022llc.
Do you need any others?

FYI,  the I-D on the ifTable evolution is
draft-ietf-ifmib-evolution-02.txt.
We should know how we plan to model management
snadlc interfaces using the new ifmib model.

Subject: ifType values



We are really coming down to the wire on the MIB. One area that has
been of concern on and off over the years is the values for ifType.

This is your chance. We can add new enumerations to ifType at this time.

So, please please please, go look at the mib draft and check out ifType.
See if your favorite interface type is there. If it isn't let us know. 

We are already adding an enumeration for LocalTalk -- so if that's what
you want DON'T ASK. There has been some confusion with regard to the
ifTypes for ATM and we are working to clear that up.
