The IETF met, last week, and I wanted to verify the procedure for getting MIB numbers. Turns out to be painfully simple: Send a request to the Keeper of Numbers: Joyce K. Reynolds (jkrey@isi.edu) Joyce works with the Numbers Czar, Jon Postel. In effect, you simply are registering your organization. She will give you a number that resides under the private mib extensions portion of the tree. Dave Crocker IETF Area Director, Network Management
