it, also which is why I'm surprised that there is contention about this
fitting within the (proposed) Charter.</font>

<br><font size=2 color=blue face="Arial">I see your second option as they
way to solve the first option. This doesn't make them two different
problems. It seems to me that maybe management/monitoring through
the firewall is the charter and using SOAP and XML in a device is the scope/requirement
on how to do this. Of course, for legacy devices with SNMP, there
will need to be a proxy to handle this. I'm not sure that I'm using
the terminology for scope and requirement correctly but this is how I see
the problem resolved.</font>

I'd like to try and resolve some of the (unfortunate) differences we are
having regarding Charter, Scope, Requirements. </font><font size=3><br>
</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
>From what I can decipher, there is a well established interest in solving
the problem "I've been getting at my (device) management data
remotely, within my enterprise just fine... but, now, how can I access
it across the firewall" (maybe to provide services to multiple enterprises
etc.). </font><font size=3><br>
</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
Others also want to solve... "... and what is the standard protocol
and data model that lends itself to the web services environment that may
be employed by proxy servers and/or directly in the embedded device".</font><font size=3>
<br>
</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
Of course, we will have legacy SNMP devices to manage for quite some time
but I don't think the current existence of SNMP is the answer to the 2nd
question. <br>
