Structure of Management Information for version 2 of the Simple Network Management Protocol
RFC 1442, “Structure of Management Information for version 2 of the Simple Network Management Protocol”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 1993 by J. Case, K. McCloghrie, M. Rose, S. Waldbusser. It has been obsoleted by RFC 1902 — refer to the newer document for the authoritative version. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Management information is viewed as a collection of managed objects, residing in a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base (MIB). Collections of related objects are defined in MIB modules. These modules are written using a subset of OSI's Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [1]. It is the purpose of this document, the Structure of Management Information (SMI), to define that subset. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
