Exporting MIB Variables using the IPFIX Protocol

This document specifies a way to complement IPFIX Data Records with Management Information Base (MIB) objects, avoiding the need to define new IPFIX Information Elements for existing Management Information Base objects that are already fully specified. An IPFIX Options Template and method are specified, which are used to export the extra information required to fully describe Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) MIB objects in IPFIX.
