Re: How to construct an OID?

["Jacques Landru" <landru@enic.fr>]

Hi

Here is my OID tree, inspired from first level under internet subtree
(.1.3.6.1)
  - node 1 is root for directory subtree
  - node 2 is root for management subtree (ENIC's snmp mibs)
  - node 3 is root for experimental subtree (directory schemas or snmp mib)
