1. Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets.
In particular, it defines objects for managing Synchronous Optical
Network/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SONET/SDH) interfaces. This
document is a companion to the documents that define Managed Objects
for the DS1/E1/DS2/E2 and DS3/E3 Interface Types [24][25].
Textual Conventions used in this MIB are defined in [6] and [36].
This memo replaces RFC 1595 [30]. Changes relative to RFC 1595 are
summarized in the MIB module's REVISION clause.
