We don't have a document per se detailing where we've used the RFC 1593
MIB in IBM products.  I can tell you that the MIB is supported, at least
in part, in the following products:

Agents:
   6611 router
   AS/400
   NetView for OS/2
   SNA Server/6000
Manager:
   APPN Topology Feature of Router & Bridge Manager (for NetView/AIX)

As for a statement of direction, the AIW companies are currently working
on development of a standardized APPN MIB, taking as our starting point
an extended version of the RFC 1593 MIB.  It's far too early in that
process to make any statement either way about support for that MIB in
any IBM products.

If you're interested in following the progress of the APPN MIB (and a
companion MIB for HPR) in the AIW, you can subscribe to the AIW mailing
list aiw-appn-mibs.  Documents are available in the .../appn/mibs
directory.
