I suggest that someone coordinate allocation of sub-arcs. I suggest: .0 sysctl .0.0 variant sysctl .0.1 static sysctl ... Unless already allocated. NOTE! Some sysctl's fit into RFC2790!!! I would also suggest that all applications and networking operations need assignements, except as where sub-element assignments have already been specified, for all RFC'ed MIBs, under an RFC sub-ARC (see references following signature).
