RFC 2514             ATM TCs and OBJECT-IDENTITIES         February 1999


   When designing a MIB module, it is often useful to define new types
   similar to those defined in the SMI.  In comparison to a type defined
   in the SMI, each of these new types has a different name, a similar
   syntax, but a more precise semantics.  These newly defined types are
   termed textual conventions, and are used for the convenience of
   humans reading the MIB module.  This is done through Textual
   Conventions as defined in RFC1903 [1].  It is the purpose of this
   document to define the set of textual conventions available to ATM
   MIB modules.

   When designing MIB modules, it is also often useful to register
   further properties with object identifier assignments so that they
   can be further used by other MIB modules.  This is done through the
   OBJECT-IDENTITY macro defined in RFC1902 [2].  This document defines
   OBJECT-IDENTITIES available to ATM MIB modules.

   Note that for organizational purposes OBJECT IDENTITIES previously
   defined in RFC1695 have been moved to this specification and no
   longer appear in the revision of RFC1695 [3]. However, the original
   OBJECT IDENTIFIERs have been preserved.

   For an introduction to the concepts of ATM connections, see [3].

7.  Intellectual Property

   The IETF takes no position regarding the validity or scope of any
   intellectual property or other rights that might be claimed to
   pertain to the implementation or use of the technology described in
   this document or the extent to which any license under such rights
   might or might not be available; neither does it represent that it
   has made any effort to identify any such rights.  Information on the
   IETF's procedures with respect to rights in standards-track and
   standards-related documentation can be found in BCP-11.  Copies of
   claims of rights made available for publication and any assurances of
   licenses to be made available, or the result of an attempt made to
   obtain a general license or permission for the use of such
   proprietary rights by implementors or users of this specification can
   be obtained from the IETF Secretariat.

   The IETF invites any interested party to bring to its attention any
   copyrights, patents or patent applications, or other proprietary
   rights which may cover technology that may be required to practice
   this standard.  Please address the information to the IETF Executive
   Director.
