Hi Glenn,

Maybe I misunderstand how transportDomain and transportAddress are
supposed to work. I have consulted one of the authors of RFC3419 to
make sure my understanding is correct. 

As I read RFC3419, it seems to me that transportDomain and
transportAddress form a discriminated union; they form a corresponding
pair. So your response to my concern did not answer the question.

>From RFC3419:
transportDomainUdpIpv4 OBJECT-IDENTITY
    STATUS      current
    DESCRIPTION
        "The UDP over IPv4 transport domain.  The corresponding
         transport address is of type TransportAddressIPv4 for
         global IPv4 addresses."
    ::= { transportDomains 1 }

TransportAddressIPv4 ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
    DISPLAY-HINT "1d.1d.1d.1d:2d"
    STATUS      current
    DESCRIPTION
        "Represents a transport address consisting of an IPv4
         address and a port number (as used for example by UDP,
         TCP and SCTP):

          octets       contents         encoding
           1-4         IPv4 address     network-byte order
           5-6         port number      network-byte order

         This textual convention SHOULD NOT be used directly in object
         definitions since it restricts addresses to a specific
format.
         However, if it is used, it MAY be used either on its own or
         in conjunction with TransportAddressType or TransportDomain
         as a pair."
    SYNTAX      OCTET STRING (SIZE (6))


When syslogEntityControlTransportDomain contains the value
transportDomainUdpIpv4, into which object in the syslog mib does one
put the corresponding transport address of type TransportAddressIPv4?
