While designing a MIB module, it is often useful to define new types similar to those defined in the SMI. These new types with different names, a similar syntax, and a more precise semantics are termed as textual conventions. The textual convention objects do not need separate classes because they are resolved into base data types. The textual convention objects are handled internally in the mibs package. AdventNet SNMP API supports the MacAddress and DateAndTime, according to their definitions.
