Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it defines a basic set of managed objects for SNMP-
based management of MCNS/DOCSIS compliant Radio Frequency (RF)
interfaces.
This memo specifies a MIB module in a manner that is compliant to the
SNMP SMIv2 [5][6][7]. The set of objects are consistent with the
SNMP framework and existing SNMP standards.
This memo is a product of the IPCDN working group within the Internet
Engineering Task Force. Comments are solicited and should be
addressed to the working group's mailing list at ipcdn@terayon.com
and/or the author.
