Two comments: 1) Since these are not MIB stats, it sounds like a good idea not to use _MIB_ extender in the naming. Maybe something like _NOTMIB_ ;-> or totaly leave it out. One other approach is to push these to be a MIB at IETF since they are sensible to have. 2) Why /proc? Are you going to make these available also via netlink? cheers, jamal - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
