Abstract: Management information and procedures applicable across the entire family of IEEE 802 LAN/MAN standards within the architectural framework for LAN/MAN Management specified in IEEE Std 802-1990 are identified. Common management information, such as attributes to represent MAC address and managed objects to represent configurable gauges, are specified. The need of developers of LAN/MAN management specifications for common procedures to develop, describe, and register management information is addressed.
