This MIB provides network management support to regulate
the transmission of notifications generated by a  
system providing networking services.  The system could  
be generating several notifications pertaining to  
various events.  Allowing every notification to be  
transmitted out may lead to the network being flooded  
with an excess of network management traffic.  Hence it  
is required to regulate the generation and transmission  
of notifications.
