3. In the dot3MpcpEntry table : there are two fields dot3MpcpReceiverSettlingTime and dot3MpcpCdrLockTime.
We do not have any reference to these in the 802.3ah drafts. If I am not wrong, these two are replaced by the ‘SyncTime’ in the draft 1.414 itself. Should we reflect this in the MIB too?
Editor’s reply: Indeed the MPCP is using sync time which is the addition of both. Without intervening with MPCP considerations the optical devices has separate agc and cdr times which from management perspective are very interesting to be exchanged. (please note that the 802.3ah in clasue 60 and 65 refer to them as different parameters which only the added time is complying). In order to comply to the MPCP I will add an attribute for sync time but my opinion is that agc and cdr time should also be maintained for management.
