Hi,
What about case where the row is static/active and some of the vardinds
can be configured as InetAddressType/InetAddress?
Thanks,
Shlomi

I would think that if the InetAddressType/InetAddress pair is part of a
row in a read-create table, that the browser user could do:
- set row to notInService
- change InetAddressType
- change InetAddres
- set row active

Each as a separate SNMP SET request. Not ideal, but doable.
It of course also means that the agent must support the notInService for
this to work (which may not always be the case... some
MODULE-COMPLIANCES actually do not require support for not_inService ...
or so I thought).
