SNMP and the Internet Standard Management Framework are widely used for
management of communication devices, creating needs to specify SNMP access
(including access to SNMP MIB object instances) from non-SNMP management
environments. For example, when out-of-band IP management is used via a
separate management interface (e.g., for a device that does not support
in-band IP access) there is a need for a uniform way to indicate how to
contact the device for management. URIs fit this need well, as they allow a
single text string to indicate a management access communication endpoint
for a wide variety of IP-based protocols.
