Whoa, here.  Replication of MIB values is an explicit non-goal of
traditional MIB design, right?  At least this is what Steve Waldbusser
has repeatedly stated (and for good reason).


If you're replicating values to somehow make it easier for a mgmt app,
then I'd suggest the MIB is too complicated.
