Poor names on my part. Change (for example): <br>
<br>
counterErrors --> counterForErrors<br>
counterWarnings --> counterForWarnings<br>

Sounds like it might be a good idea. Not sure I understand exact usage
of<br>
"counter errors". Is this problems with the counters, counts
of errors...? <br>

<br>
<br>

<br>
Hi folks,
Tuesday
(25 January 2005)<br>
<br>
I propose that we add an Alert group (objects) and an Alert Trap group<br>
(notification) to the Counter MIB and a Counter events class to the WIMS<br>
Events schema.<br>
<br>
A monitor application that registers for 'icAlertV2Trap' notifications<br>
can effectively use the Counter MIB stand-alone, typically without data<br>
from any other MIB.<br>
<br>
Comments?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
- Ira<br>
