<br><tt><font size=2>Hi folks,
Monday (25 July 2005)<br>
<br>
Below are proposed updates for missing 'out-of-band' values to three<br>
textual conventions defined in the IANA-PRINTER-MIB. These missing<br>
'unknown(2)' values were technical errors in Printer MIB v1 (RFC 1759)<br>
and Printer MIB v2 (RFC 3805).<br>
<br>
These updates will allow the new Printer Port Monitor MIB to use a<br>
syntax of PrtChannelTypeTC for the ppmPortProtocolType object (as<br>
recently requested by Bert Wijnen). These updates should also improve<br>
interoperability among Printer MIB implementations (they are all the<br>
appropriate default values).<br>
<br>
After review, these additions should be sent to IANA for registration<br>
in the IANA-PRINTER-MIB by our Designated Experts, Bert Wijnen and Harry<br>
Lewis.<br>
<br>
Comments?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
- Ira (co-editor of Printer MIB v2)<br>
