Section MIB says:

> Dear IETF Person-in-Charge,

>      We found that Q-BRIDGE-MIB (RFC 2674) had its content corrected

> << old ("which" as correlative pronoun)
>        "The number of valid frames received by this port from
>        its segment which were classified as belonging to this
>        VLAN which were discarded due to VLAN related reasons.
