[ANCP] Questions regarding ANCP MIB ancpAnSessionConfigRelatedEntity



Hi, all,

 

I have some questions about the implementation of ANCP MIB item ancpAnSessionConfigRelatedEntity; can anybody give me some idea? Thanks in advance!

 

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ancp-mib-an-04

 

 ancpAnSessionConfigRelatedEntity OBJECT-TYPE

       SYNTAX      RowPointer

       MAX-ACCESS  read-create

       STATUS      current

       DESCRIPTION

             "This object contains the name of an object instance

              uniquely identifying a lower layer entity associated

              with this session.  For example, in the case where

              the session is associated with an ATM VCC, this object

              might be set to an object identifier uniquely identifying

              that VCC (e.g., an object instance in atmVclTable).

              If unused, this object MUST have the value zeroDotZero.

              The value of this object is persistent."

       DEFVAL { zeroDotZero }

       ::= { ancpAnSessionConfigEntry 16 }

 

Question:

1.    “a lower layer entity associated with this session”

What is the association between a lower layer entity and an ANCP session? Is it associated with partition id?

What is the application scenario for this?

 

2.    what is the format of the name/identifier

"Access-Node-Identifier atm slot/port:vpi.vci", which is defined in TR-101, or an index, i.e. an index of the atmVclTable?

 

Best Regards

James
