The object-identifier type represents administratively
assigned names in a registration-hierarchical-name tree.
Values of this type are denoted as a sequence of numerical
non-negative sub-identifier values. Each sub-identifier
value MUST NOT exceed 2^32-1 (4294967295). Sub-identifiers
are separated by single dots and without any intermediate
white space.
Although, the number of sub-identifiers is not limited,
module designers should realize that there may be
implementations that stick with the SMIv2 limit of 128
sub-identifiers.
This type is a superset of the SMIv2 OBJECT IDENTIFIER type
since it is not restricted to 128 sub-identifiers.";
