The DESCRIPTION clause of the radiusAccClientRetransmissionsOBJECT-TYPE declaration says:
DESCRIPTION "The number of RADIUS Accounting-Request packets retransmitted to this RADIUS accounting server. Retransmissions include retries where the Identifier and Acct-Delay have been updated, as well as those in which they remain the same."
It should say:
DESCRIPTION "The number of RADIUS Accounting-Request packets retransmitted to this RADIUS accounting server. Retransmissions include retries where the Identifier and Acct-Delay have been updated, as well as those in which they remained the same."

misleading RFC title, including abuse of defined terms (for RFCs 4668 - 4671) IMHO, the RFC titles, "RADIUS ... MIB for IPv6" are misleading. In fact, the new RFCs extend the RADIUS MIB modules to cover IPv6, but they are not IPv6 specific! Perhaps, better wording would have been "... for IPv4 and IPv6". Furthermore, a very 'popular' clash of terms shines up here. As specified in RFC 3410 and Part 1 of STD 62, RFC 3411, and re-stated in the boilerplate Section 3, "The Internet-Standard Management Framework", of all four RFCs, there's just one single Management Information Base (MIB) comprised of various "MIB modules". Thus, throughout the titles and the text bodies of the RFCs, the proper term, "RADIUS ... MIB module" should be used instead of the rather sluggish "RADIUS ... MIB".

no title change needed - ipv6 covers also previous ipv4 support
