In the Dec 10 "Communications Week" we saw an sidebar which
mentioned a registry maintained at the University of Southern
California. It includes data from >130 vendors about their
networking systems. It says "The TCP/IP community chose a
university as the guardian of this registry in an attempt
to provide an open way for users, vendors, and systems
integrators to access this information". I just wish the
article had mentioned how/where to locate this document!
I suspect that this is in reference to the list of SNMP vendors. The
list is available for anonymous FTP from venera.isi.edu as
mib/snmp-vendors-contacts.
I just wish that journalists would get the "facts" that they publish straight.
