DESCRIPTION
"An octet string containing a tag value.
Tag values are preferably in human-readable form.
To facilitate internationalization, this information
is represented using the ISO/IEC IS 10646-1 character
set, encoded as an octet string using the UTF-8
character encoding scheme described in RFC 2279.
Since additional code points are added by amendments
to the 10646 standard from time to time,
implementations must be prepared to encounter any code
point from 0x00000000 to 0x7fffffff.
The use of control codes should be avoided, and certain
control codes are not allowed as described below.
For code points not directly supported by user
interface hardware or software, an alternative means
of entry and display, such as hexadecimal, may be
provided.
For information encoded in 7-bit US-ASCII, the UTF-8
representation is identical to the US-ASCII encoding.
Note that when this TC is used for an object that
is used or envisioned to be used as an index, then a
SIZE restriction must be specified so that the number
of sub-identifiers for any object instance does not
exceed the limit of 128, as defined by [RFC1905].
An object of this type contains a single tag value
which is used to select a set of entries in a table.
A tag value is an arbitrary string of octets, but
may not contain a delimiter character. Delimiter
characters are defined to be one of the following:
- An ASCII space character (0x20).
- An ASCII TAB character (0x09).
- An ASCII carriage return (CR) character (0x0D).
- An ASCII line feed (LF) character (0x0B).
Delimiter characters are used to separate tag values
in a tag list. An object of this type may only
contain a single tag value, and so delimiter
characters are not allowed in a value of this type.
Some examples of valid tag values are:
- 'acme'
- 'router'
- 'host'
The use of a tag value to select table entries is
application and MIB specific."

- An ASCII TAB character (0x09).
- An ASCII carriage return (CR) character (0x0D).
- An ASCII line feed (LF) character (0x0B).
Delimiter characters are used to separate tag values
in a tag list. Only a single delimiter character may
occur between two tag values. A tag value may not
have a zero length. These constraints imply certain
restrictions on the contents of this object:
- There cannot be a leading or trailing delimiter
character.
- There cannot be multiple adjacent delimiter
characters.
Some examples of valid tag lists are:
- An empty string
- 'acme router'
- 'host managerStation'
Note that although a tag value may not have a length of
zero, an empty string is still valid. This indicates
an empty list (i.e. there are no tag values in the list).
The use of the tag list to select table entries is
application and MIB specific. Typically, an application
will provide one or more tag values, and any entry
which contains some combination of these tag values
will be selected."

snmpTargetSpinLock OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TestAndIncr
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"This object is used to facilitate modification of table
entries in the SNMP-TARGET-MIB module by multiple
managers. In particular, it is useful when modifying
the value of the snmpTargetAddrTagList object.
The procedure for modifying the snmpTargetAddrTagList
object is as follows:
1. Retrieve the value of snmpTargetSpinLock and
of snmpTargetAddrTagList.
2. Generate a new value for snmpTargetAddrTagList.
3. Set the value of snmpTargetSpinLock to the
retrieved value, and the value of
snmpTargetAddrTagList to the new value. If
the set fails for the snmpTargetSpinLock
object, go back to step 1."

::= { snmpTargetAddrEntry 3 }
snmpTargetAddrTimeout OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TimeInterval
MAX-ACCESS read-create
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"This object should reflect the expected maximum round
trip time for communicating with the transport address
defined by this row. When a message is sent to this
address, and a response (if one is expected) is not
received within this time period, an implementation
may assume that the response will not be delivered.
Note that the time interval that an application waits
for a response may actually be derived from the value
of this object. The method for deriving the actual time
interval is implementation dependent. One such method
is to derive the expected round trip time based on a
particular retransmission algorithm and on the number
of timeouts which have occurred. The type of message may
also be considered when deriving expected round trip
times for retransmissions. For example, if a message is
being sent with a securityLevel that indicates both
authentication and privacy, the derived value may be
increased to compensate for extra processing time spent
during authentication and encryption processing."
