MIB Textual Conventions for Uniform Resource Identifiers
Overview
RFC 5017, “MIB Textual Conventions for Uniform Resource Identifiers”, is a Proposed Standard document published in September 2007 by D. McWalter. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This MIB module defines textual conventions to represent STD 66 Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs). The intent is that these textual conventions will be imported and used in MIB modules that would otherwise define their own representation(s). [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.
