Re: allocate oids

[Richard Basch <richard.basch@med.nyu.edu>]

First, you should request an OID for yourself or your company, if you are
planning to extend the schema with new attributes or object classes.  To
request an OID "tree", visit:
    http://www.iana.org/cgi-bin/enterprise.pl
It costs nothing and only takes a day or two to receive an OID.

At this point, you can define OIDs as you see fit with the following format:

1.3.6.1.4.1.<IANA-OID>.*

For instance, if I were assigned the IANA-OID 54321, I could create an
objectclass with the following OID
1.3.6.1.4.1.54321.2

In essence, you are the rightful user of anything beginning with
1.3.6.1.4.1.54321. and you can create a tree of OIDs, as appropriate (items
with sub-items, etc).

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,
Richard Basch
