Subject: Reg MIB Augments
...
when i augment an existing mib with a new one, should a walk
issued on the old mib traverse to the new mib ?? This makes sense if
the two tables are in the same node ie next in lexicographic order.But
if these two tables are apart ,should a walk traverse into the new mib?
No, unless access control (e.g. RFC 2575) or RFC 2576 clause
4.1.2.1 has caused all the intervening stuff to be skipped.
In this case the OID's change and order is no more lexicographic.
Can we augment a scalar table ie system table with another
scalar table??
...
It sounds like there's some confusion between "group" and
"table". See RFC 2578 clause 7.8 for the conditions where
AUGMENTS makes sense.
For further discussion on this topic, I suggest using the
snmpv3(_at_)lists(_dot_)tislabs(_dot_)com or the
mibs(_at_)ops(_dot_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing
lists.
