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.
