| 423 | An object identifier (OID) is an extensively used identification mechanism |
||
| 424 | jointly developed by <a href="http://www.itu.int/ITU-T">ITU-T</a> and |
||
| 425 | <a href="http://www.iso.org">ISO</a>/<a href="http://www.iec.org">IEC</a> |
||
| 426 | for naming any type of <a href="faq.htm#2">object, concept or "thing"</a> |
||
| 427 | with a globally unambiguous name which requires a persistent name (long |
||
| 428 | life-time). It is not intended to be used for transient naming. OIDs, |
||
| 429 | once allocated, should not be re-used for a different object/thing.<br><br>It is based on a hierarchical name structure based on the "<a href="faq.htm#16">OID |
||
| 430 | tree</a>". This naming structure uses a sequence of names, of which |
||
| 431 | the first name identifies a top-level "node" in the OID tree, |
||
| 432 | and the next provides further identification of arcs leading to sub-nodes |
||
| 433 | beneath the top-level, and so on to any depth.<br><br>A critical feature of this identification mechanism is that it makes |
||
| 434 | OIDs available to a great many organizations and specifications for |
||
| 435 | their own use (including countries, ITU-T Recommendations, ISO and IEC |
||
| 436 | International Standards, specifications from national, regional or international |
||
| 437 | organizations, etc.). <br></p> |
