SNMP Variable Types and Request PDU Types

[SNMP is available for use in the operating systems specified in the Requirements section. It may be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions. Instead, use Windows Remote Management, which is the Microsoft implementation of WS-Man.]

The definitions for some SNMP variable types and request PDU types have changed. The Snmp.h file maps old types to the corresponding new types.
