Note that the body of Rec. ITU-T X.227 defines OID {joint-iso-itu-t association-control(2) as-id(3) acse-ase(1) version(1)} whereas its Annex B defines OID {joint-iso-itu-t association-control(2) authentication-mechanism(3) password-1(1)}.
On 22 Jan 2003, Peter Furniss wrote: yes, the authentication mechanism OID is wrong (since it came second historically, it's Annex B that is at fault). However, the fact that no-one has ever raised this problems makes it clear that either no-one has implemented Annex B (possible), or if they have, they have not found any problems in colliding with the OID for the ASE. If anyone is using these OIDs in practice, it would be a considerable dis-service, of no benefit to anyone, to change of the OIDs.
