1611 DNS Server MIB Extensions. R. Austein, J. Saperia. May 1994.
     (Format: TXT=58700 bytes) (Status: US:) (Status: PROPOSED STANDARD)

1612 DNS Resolver MIB Extensions. R. Austein, J. Saperia. May 1994.
     (Format: TXT=61382 bytes) (Status: US:) (Status: PROPOSED STANDARD)

However, named doesn't provide a gateway for the SNMP agent to access the
information, so I believe these proposed standards have effetively died for
lack of implementation.
