...but the private enterprise number is for Ascend (or whatever that
division of Lucent is now called), not for a particular product.  The
private enterprise number for NetApp is for NetApp, not for ONTAP and/or
NetCache....

RFC 1700 is a bit old and, in any case, the HTTP URL refers to a
document that starts out saying:

	PRIVATE ENTERPRISE NUMBERS

	SMI Network Management Private Enterprise Codes:

	Prefix: iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprise (1.3.6.1.4.1)

	This file is

          ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/enterprise-numbers

so the HTTP and FTP URLs definitely map to the same file.

(Also, if you go to

	ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/

and then to

	http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/

you'll see a very suspiciously similar set of names, dates, and sizes on
the files listed therein; the changes are overwhelmingly high that the
FTP and HTTP servers at ISI are simply coughing up the same directory
there....)
