Re: patch - SNMP Kernel Counters

[Mark Price <mkprice@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the info Andi, in terms of the patch this is easy to resolve
the MIB definition of tcpRtoAlgorithm is:

tcpRtoAlgorithm OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX  INTEGER {
                other(1),    -- none of the following

                constant(2), -- a constant rto
                rsre(3),     -- MIL-STD-1778, Appendix B
                vanj(4)      -- Van Jacobson's algorithm [10]
            }

I'll recode it as other(1), and resubmit the patch.

Cheers, Mark.
