RFC 3291: Textual Conventions for Internet Network Addresses

This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 4001.

Current document in this lineage: RFC 4001 — Textual Conventions for Internet Network Addresses

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This MIB module defines textual conventions to represent commonly used Internet network layer addressing information. The intent is that these textual conventions (TCs) will be imported and used in MIB modules that would otherwise define their own representations. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
