Re: smidump -f smiv1 output

Hi and thanks for the feedback. For example, we have the following SMIv2 MIB object:
ibmMvsTcpListenerLocalAddrType OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX InetAddressType MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The IP address type of the ibmMvsTcpListenerLocalAddr object." ::= { ibmTcpipMvsTcpListenerEntry 2 }
In the SMIv1 output from smidump, we thought this object would have been defined as:
ibmMvsTcpListenerLocalAddrType OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX INTEGER { unknown(0), ipv4(1), ipv6(2), ipv4z(3), ipv6z(4), dns(16) } ACCESS read-only STATUS mandatory DESCRIPTION "The IP address type of the ibmMvsTcpListenerLocalAddr object." ::= { ibmTcpipMvsTcpListenerEntry 2 }
Thanks,

Such a change is not necessary. The SMIv1 output as it is produced now is valid and reflects more closely what the original SMIv2 defines.
