Subject: [Sip] Textual Convention for URI

I would appreciate advice about an appropriate SMIv2 Textual Convention
for URIs. 

The closest TC we are aware of is the following definition copied from
the NETWORK-SERVICES-MIB (RFC 2788):

  -- Uniform Resource Locators are stored in URLStrings.

  URLString ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
      DISPLAY-HINT "255a"
      STATUS current
      DESCRIPTION
          "A Uniform Resource Locator represented in accordance
           with RFCs 1738 and 2368, presented in the NVT ASCII
           charset defined in RFC 854."
      SYNTAX OCTET STRING (SIZE (0..255))

Is this sufficient anymore these days? 

Note that  the size 255 is the usual constraint we traditionally put on
all SNMP octet strings since at the end they must fit into 484 byte SNMP
messages. So what we typically do is to impose SNMP constraints that do
not exist in the managed technology. :-(

Thanks,

Dan
