Section 12, pg.45 says:

[[ 2nd para of DESCRIPTION clause for pwGenFecIndexMappingEntry OBJECT-TYPE: ]]

           Implementers need to be aware that if the combined value
           of pwGenFecIndexMappingAGI, pwGenFecIndexMappingLocalAII,
|          and pwGenFecIndexMappingRemoteAII (OIDs) has more than
|          113 sub-identifiers, then OIDs of column instances
           in this table will have more than 128 sub-identifiers
           and cannot be accessed using SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3."

It should say:

           Implementers need to be aware that if the combined value
           of pwGenFecIndexMappingAGI, pwGenFecIndexMappingLocalAII,
|          and pwGenFecIndexMappingRemoteAII corresponds to more
|          than 113 sub-identifiers, then OIDs of column instances
           in this table will have more than 128 sub-identifiers
           and cannot be accessed using SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3."

Notes:

Rationale (cf. EID=1864 and EID=1866):
These objects conceptually are not OIDs; they become mapped to
relative OIDs when used as INDEX variables. The corrected text
attempts this clarification with minimal textual footprint.
--VERIFIER NOTES--
The original text is correct and easily understood by a MIB experts.
