Important notes.
===============
1. This implementation is actually a system independent
template. It means that the question "Where and how
may I collect the monitored statistics ?" is taken out
from the scope. Actually, it is emulated with random values.
You are free to rewrite the function 'get_history_data'
for your system. Don't forget also to insert DataSourse
checking in 'history_Validate' function. (Both functions
are in the file history.c).
2. This implementation has two RMON mib understanding extensions
(I hope it does not break anything; nevertheless you may use
it in completely standard way).
2.1. I permit to set VALID entryStatus when entry doesn't exit;
in this case PDU has to have the necessary & valid set
of non-default values
2.2. I permit to travel from VALID to 'UNDER_CREATION' state:
these ways a manager can change control entry and validate
it once more.
