3. Changes from RFC 1156

Features of this MIB include:

1. incremental additions to reflect new operational requirements;

2. upwards compatibility with the SMI/MIB and the SNMP;

3. improved support for multi-protocol entities; and,

4. textual clean-up of the MIB to improve clarity and readability.

The objects defined in MIB-II have the OBJECT IDENTIFIER prefix:

      mib-2      OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { mgmt 1 }

which is identical to the prefix used in MIB-I.
