- MSI Minutes
-
- The following issues were discussed at the MSI Working Group session.
-
-
- o Online MIB Database and the Need for both GDMO and SNMP MIB
- Definitions: The group discussed the requirement for an online MIB
- database that would be needed to support the translation of MSI
- requests and replies to and from protocol specific formats. It was
- decided that the MSI document would make an explicit statement
- about the types of services that would be required from such a
- database, but would not attempt to fully define an interface to the
- data. In addition, the issue with the need for both GDMO and SNMP
- versions of MIBs was discussed and also raised at the OIM meeting.
- It was decided that the Chairs of the OIM and MSI Working Groups
- would raise this as an issue with the Network Area Chair.
-
- o Access Control Change: The format of the access control parameter
- was changed to be an AVL and the decision on the contents of the
- parameter was defined until the proposals for SNMP and CMOT
- authentication are stable. Once these methods are stable, then the
- contents of the access control parameter for each protocol will be
- the subject of separate implementors agreements and will not be
- included directly in the MSI document.
-
- o Add ASN.1 Encodings for the MSI Parameters: Oscar Newkerk agreed
- to add an appendix to the MSI document that will define that ASN.1
- structures and the object identifiers needed by the MSI.
