The DateAndTime textual convention did not originally define a special

value which can be used in situations where a DateAndTime value is

unknown or for some other reason not available. Several MIB modules on

the IETF standards-track use the value '0000000000000000'H in such

situations. In order to formally legalize this established practice,

the following errata to the DESCRIPTION clause of the DateAndTime

textual convention has been filed:

OLD:

               2       3    month                     1..12

               3       4    day                       1..31

NEW:

               2       3    month                 0 | 1..12

               3       4    day                   0 | 1..31

In Section 7.1.1

    "The RowStatus textual convention is used to manage the

    creation and deletion of conceptual rows, and is used as the

    value of the SYNTAX clause for the status column of a

    conceptual row (as described in Section 7.7.1 of [2].)

Should be:

    "The RowStatus textual convention is used to manage the

    creation and deletion of conceptual rows, and is used as the

    value of the SYNTAX clause for the status column of a

    conceptual row (as described in Section 7.1.12 of [2].)

In Section 2:

 RFC 2579 lists an invalid range for the year in the DateAndTime TC:

             field  octets  contents                  range

             -----  ------  --------                  -----

               1      1-2   year*                     0..65536

Should be:

             field  octets  contents                  range

             -----  ------  --------                  -----

               1      1-2   year*                     0..65535
