Julian- I'm not sure I see the need for registering keys, but that aside, if we register digest and auth methods I would suggest that we also register an integer method number with each; this will make it easier to add them to the MIBs. I would also suggest that we register the current ones as well as any extensions. -- Mark Julian Satran wrote: > > Registering the current keys is an issue already raised by Mallikarjun.
