PW-MIB

This MIB contains managed object definitions for Pseudo Wire operation as in: Pate, P., et al, <draft-ietf-pwe3- framework>, Xiao, X., et al, <draft-ietf-pwe3- requirements>, Martini, L., et al, <draft-martini- l2circuit-trans-mpls>, and Martini, L., et al, <draft-martini-l2circuit-encap-mpls>. The indexes for this MIB are also used to index the PSN- specific tables and the VC-specific tables. The VC Type dictates which VC-specific MIB to use. For example, a 'cep' VC Type requires the use the configuration and status tables within the CEP-MIB. This MIB enable the use of any underlying packet switched network (PSN). Specific tables for the MPLS PSN is currently defined in a separate PW-MPLS-MIB. Tables to support other PSNs (IP, L2TP for example) will be added to this MIB in future revisions. At the time of publication of this version, there are no PWE3 WG documents for all features and objects in this MIB, and the MIB is therefore subject to change based on the WG progress.

OBJECT IDENTIFIER

pwVcIndexNextThis object contains an appropriate value to be used for pwVcIndex when creating entries in the pwVcTable. The value 0 indicates that no unassigned entries are available. To obtain the value of pwVcIndex for a new entry in the pwVcTable, the manager issues a management protocol retrieval operation to obtain the current value of pwVcIndex. After each retrieval operation, the agent should modify the value to reflect the next unassigned index. After a manager retrieves a value the agent will determine through its local policy when this index value will be made available for reuse.ro

PwVcType (PW-TC-MIB)
.1.3.6.1.3.1.1.2.1.2
pwVcOwnerSet by the operator to indicate the protocol responsible for establishing this VC. Value 'manual' is used in all cases where no maintenance protocol (PW signaling) is used to set-up the VC, i.e. require configuration of entries in the VC tables including VC labels, etc. The value 'maintenanceProtocol' is used in case of standard signaling of the VC for the specific PSN, for example LDP for MPLS PSN as specified in <draft- draft-martini- l2circuit-trans-mpls> or L2TP control protocol. Value 'other' is used for other types of signaling.rw
Enumeration
.1.3.6.1.3.1.1.2.1.3
pwVcPsnTypeSet by the operator to indicate the PSN type on which this VC will be carried. Based on this object, the relevant PSN table entries are created in the in the PSN specific MIB modules. For example, if mpls(1) is defined, the agent create an entry in pwVcMplsTable, which further define the MPLS PSN configuration. Note: the exact set of PSN types is yet to be worked out by the WG.rw
Enumeration
.1.3.6.1.3.1.1.2.1.4
pwVcSetUpPriorityThis object define the relative set-up priority of the VC in a lowest-to-highest fashion, where 0 is the highest priority. VCs with the same priority are treated with equal priority.

In strict mode, packets coming from the PSN are accepted only from tunnels that are associated to the same VC via the inbound tunnel table in the case of MPLS, or as identified by the source IP address in case of L2TP or IP PSN. The entries in the inbound tunnel table are either explicitly configured or implicitly known by the maintenance protocol used for VC set-up. If such association is not known, not configured or not desired, loose mode should be configured, and the node should accept the packet based on the VC label only regardless of the outer tunnel used to carry the VC.rw
