Re: [MIB-DOCTORS] [OPS-DIR]http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ippm-storetraceroutes-10.txtand RFC 4560

Hi,

In MIB-land, we have naming conventions, documented in RFC4181, that
recommend objects and TCs be preceded by a prefix derived from the MIB
module name to help ensure global uniqueness.

The existing standard InetAddress datatype is from the
INET-ADDRESS-MIB.

I recommend the module defined in this document be given a unique name
(e.g., ippm), and the datatypes defined in this module be named using
a prefix derived from the module name, so the ippmInetAddress does not
conflict with the yangInetAddress or the xsdmiInetAddress and so on,
and neither definition is confused with the existing standard
InetAddress datatype from the INET-ADDRESS-MIB.
