Benoit asked me to do an early MIB doctor review of this document.  My
full comments are in the marked up copy at
http://research.microsoft.com/~dthaler/draft-ietf-softwire-dslite-mib-03.pdf
(there’s also a .docx version if you replace the .pdf extension with .docx)

I’ve also cc’ed the behave WG on this mail since many of my comments concern
the relationship between draft-ietf-behave-nat-mib  and the translation parts of
this draft.

A short summary of the high level issues in my review is:

1)      The doc is not aligned with draft-ietf-behave-nat-mib.  It currently 
continues

some practices that we’re trying to deprecate as discussed in section 3.1 of

draft-ietf-behave-nat-mib.

2)      Boilerplate needs to be updated to match latest MIB boilerplate (see 
inline

comments for pointers).

3)      Any InetPortNumber object allowing 0 needs to explain what 0 means in 
that

object, as required by RFC 4001.

4)      Draft currently requires write support in all implementations.  
Recommend

having a read-only compliance statement since nowadays many folks don’t

want write support via MIBs.
