sysContact The textual identification of the con-
tact person for this managed node,
together with information on how to
contact this person.
Read-write Default value is “MIU Contact
Name” that will be changed to
an appropriate value by the
Manager Application.
Space provided is 63 bytes.
sysName An administratively assigned name
for this managed node. By conven-
tion, this is the node's fully qualified
domain name.
Read-write Default value is “MIU Contact
Name” that will be changed to
an appropriate value by the
Manager Application.
Space provided is 63 bytes.
sysLocation The physical location of this node. Read-write Default value is “MIU Location”
that will be changed to an
appropriate value by the Man-
ager Application.
Space provided is 63 bytes.
sysServices A value that indicates the set of ser-
vices that this entity primarily offers.
The value is a sum. This sum initially
takes the value zero. Then, for each
layer, L, in the range 1 through 7, that
this node performs transactions for, 2
raised to (L - 1) is added to the sum.
For example, a node that performs
primarily routing functions would have
a value of 4 (2^(3-1)). In contrast, a
node that is a host offering application
services would have a value of 72
(2^(4-1) + 2^(7-1)).
Note that in the context of the
Internet suite of protocols, values
should be calculated accordingly:
Layer Functionality:
Layer 1 - physical (e.g., repeaters)
Layer 2 - datalink/subnetwork (e.g.,
bridges)
Layer 3 - internet (e.g., IP gateways)
Layer 4 - end-to-end (e.g., IP hosts)
Layer 7 - applications (e.g., mail
relays)
* For systems including OSI proto-
cols, Layers 5 and 6 may also be
counted.
Read-only The 1900 MIU shelf will per-
form Layer 1 (physical) and
Layer 2 functionality only. So
the number would be 2^(1-1) +
2^(2-1) = 3
