Network Working Group A. Bierman Request for Comments: 2895 C. Bucci Obsoletes: 2074 Cisco Systems, Inc. Category: Standards Track R. Iddon 3Com, Inc. August 2000 Remote Network Monitoring MIB Protocol Identifier Reference Status of this Memo This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. Copyright Notice Copyright (C) The Internet Society (2000). All Rights Reserved. Abstract This memo defines a notation describing protocol layers in a protocol encapsulation, specifically for use in encoding INDEX values for the protocolDirTable, found in the RMON-2 MIB (Remote Network Monitoring Management Information Base) [RFC2021]. The definitions for the standard protocol directory base layer identifiers are also included. The first version of the RMON Protocol Identifiers Document [RFC2074] has been split into a standards-track Reference portion (this document), and an Informational document. The RMON Protocol Identifier Macros document [RFC2896] now contains the non-normative portion of that specification. This document obsoletes RFC 2074. Bierman, et al.
