If you want to get an OID branch, you can get one by applying for a "Private Enterprise Number" from the IANA, at http://pen.iana.org/pen/PenApplication.page .
You will be assigned a number. This number will show up at http://www.iana.org/assignments/enterprise-numbers . This becomes your OID -- 1.3.6.1.4.1.<yournumberhere>. You can delegate anything you want from it, to any depth you want, to any level of ludicrosity you want. But, you can't do that in a number space that you do not already own. -Kyle H On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 11:50 AM, Peter Sylvester<peter.sylves...@edelweb.fr> wrote: > >> Second, I doubt your organisation is authoritative for the OID arc >> 1.1.1.1.1 - from what documentation I can find, the 1.1 arc is used for >> examples, and shouldn't be used in production.
