1. Introduction
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it describes objects used for managing ATM-based
interfaces, devices, networks and services.
This memo specifies a MIB module in a manner that is both compliant
to the SNMPv2 SMI, and semantically identical to the peer SNMPv1
definitions.
2. The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework
The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework consists of four major
components. They are:
0 RFC 1442 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used
for describing and naming objects for the purpose of
management.
0 STD 17, RFC 1213 [2] defines MIB-II, the core set of
managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols.
0 RFC 1445 [3] which defines the administrative and other
architectural aspects of the framework.
0 RFC 1448 [4] which defines the protocol used for network
access to managed objects.
The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
experimentation and evaluation.
3. Object Definitions
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are
defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)
defined in the SMI. In particular, each object type is named by an
OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name. The object
type together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a
specific instantiation of the object. For human convenience, we
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 2]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
often use a textual string, termed the descriptor, to also refer to
the object type.
4. ATM Terminology
Some basic ATM terminologies are described in this section to
facilitate defining the ATM managed objects.
4.1. VCL/VPL and VCC/VPC
There are two distinct types of ATM virtual connections: Virtual
Channel Connections (VCCs) and Virtual Path Connection (VPCs). As
shown in Figures 1 and 2, ATM virtual connections consist of
concatenated series of virtual links which forms a path between two
end points, with each concatenation occurring at an ATM switch.
Virtual links of VCCs are called Virtual Channel Links (VCLs).
Virtual links of VPCs are called Virtual Path Links (VPLs). The VCI
and VPI fields in the ATM cell header associate each cell of a VCC
with a particular VCL over a given physical link. The VPI field in
the ATM cell header associates each cell of a VPC with a particular
VPL over a given physical link. Switches route cells between VCLs
(or VPLs) via a cross-connect function according to the cells'
VCI/VPI (or VPI) values.

Virtual Path Connection
A single ATM end-system or switch does not support the whole end-to-
end span of a VCC (or VPC). Rather, multiple ATM end- systems and/or
switches each support one piece of the VCC (or VPC). That is, each
ATM end-system at one end of the VCC/VPC supports its end of the
VCC/VPC plus the VCLs or VPLs on its external interfaces, and each
switch through which the VCC/VPC passes, supports the multiple
VCLs/VPLs on that switch's external interfaces and the cross-
connection of those VCLs/VPLs through that switch. Thus, the end-
to-end management of a VCC or VPC is achieved only by appropriate
management of its individual pieces in combination.
Note that for management purposes, an ATM network may be viewed as a
large distributed switch by hiding all the network's internal
connectivity as being internal to the distributed switch (as shown in
Figure 2a). This model may for example be used for Customer Network
Management (CNM) purposes.

Figure 2a: ATM Network modeled as a large distributed
switch
A VCC has a set of traffic characteristics (i.e., bandwidth
parameters, QoS Class parameters, etc.). VCLs inherit their traffic
characteristics from the VCC of which they are a part. VCCs are bi-
directional by definition. However, the traffic parameters in the
two directions of a connection can be symmetric or asymmetric, i.e.,
the two directions can have the same or different traffic flows. A
uni-directional traffic flow across a VCC is achieved by assigning a
zero bandwidth in one direction. Note that in addition to the
bandwidth required by the user traffic flow, bandwidth is also
required for OAM cell flows, even for the zero-bandwidth direction of
a uni-directional connection. These same principles apply to VPCs.
4.2. PVC and SVC
A Permanent Virtual Connection (PVC) is a provisioned VCC or VPC. A
Switched Virtual Connection (SVC) is a switched VCC or VPC that is
set up in real-time via call set-up signaling procedures. A PVC (or
an SVC) can be a point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, or multipoint-
to-multipoint VCC or VPC.
4.3. Traffic Management Parameters
4.3.1. Traffic Policing and Traffic Shaping Parameters
In order to allocate resources fairly among different users, some
networks police traffic at resource access points. The traffic
enforcement or policing taken at a UNI is called Usage Parameter
Control (UPC) and is activated on an incoming VCL or VPL as shown in
Figure 3. The use of the traffic enforcer at the ingress of the
connection is to make sure that the user traffic does not exceed the
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 5]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
negotiated traffic parameters such as the peak cell rate associated
with a specific traffic descriptor type.
---------- ----------
UNI | ATM | NNI | ATM | UNI
| | switch | | | switch | |
O<---|---->X(UPC) |<----|------>| (UPC)X<-----|--->O
| VCL | | | VCL | | VCL |
---------- ----------
Figure 3: An Example of a UPC
In addition, traffic shaping may be performed on an outgoing VPL or
VCL at a given ATM interface. The function of the ATM traffic shaper
either at the source or an egress point of the connection is to
smooth the outgoing cell traffic inter-arrival time. If policing or
shaping is not performed then the policing or shaping algorithm is
not activated. ATM Forum has specified seven traffic descriptor
types including one for the best effort traffic [9].
4.3.2. Cell Loss Priority
To prioritize traffic during resource congestion, ATM cells are
assigned one of the two types of Cell Loss Priority (CLP), CLP=0 and
CLP=1. ATM cells with CLP=0 have a higher priority in regard to cell
loss than ATM cells with CLP=1. Therefore, during resource
congestions, CLP=1 cells are dropped before any CLP=0 cell is
dropped.
4.3.3. QoS Class
A VCC or VPC is associated with one of a number of Quality of Service
(QoS) classes. The following service classes have been specified:
Service Class A: Constant bit rate video and Circuit
emulation
Service Class B: Variable bit rate video/audio
Service Class C: Connection-oriented data
Service Class D: Connectionless data
Four QoS classes numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4 have been specified with the
aim of supporting service classes A, B, C, and D respectively. The
VCLs (or VPLs) concatenated to form a VCC (or VPC) will all have the
same QoS class as that of the VCC (or VPC). The Cell Loss Ratio
(CLR), Cell Delay Variation (CDV), and end-to-end Cell Delay (CD)
parameters are defined as part of QoS Class definition. In addition,
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 6]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
an unspecified QoS Class numbered 0 is specified for best effort
traffic.
5. Overview
ATM management objects are used to manage ATM interfaces, ATM virtual
links, ATM cross-connects, AAL5 entities and AAL5 connections
supported by ATM hosts, ATM switches and ATM networks. This section
provides an overview and background of how to use this MIB and other
potential MIBs for this purpose.
The purpose of this memo is primarily to manage ATM PVCs. ATM SVCs
are also represented by the management information in this MIB.
However, full management of SVCs may require additional capabilities
which are beyond the scope of this memo.
5.1. Background
In addition to the MIB module defined in this memo, other MIB modules
are necessary to manage ATM interfaces, links and cross-connects.
Examples include MIB II for general system and interface management
(RFC 1213 and RFC 1573), the DS3 or SONET MIBs for management of
physical interfaces, and, as appropriate, MIB modules for
applications that make use of ATM, such as SMDS. These MIB modules
are outside the scope of this specification.
The current specification of this ATM MIB is based on SNMPv2.
5.2. Structure of the MIB
The managed ATM objects are arranged into the following groups:
(1) ATM interface configuration group
(2) ATM interface DS3 PLCP group
(3) ATM interface TC Sublayer group
(4) ATM interface virtual link (VPL/VCL) configuration
groups
(5) ATM VP/VC cross-connect groups
(6) AAL5 connection performance statistics group
Note that, managed objects for activation/deactivation of OAM cell
flows and ATM traps notifying virtual connection or virtual link
failures are outside the scope of this memo.
5.3. ATM Interface Configuration Group
This group contains information on ATM cell layer configuration of
local ATM interfaces on an ATM device in addition to the information
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 7]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
on such interfaces contained in the ifTable.
5.4. ATM Interface DS3 PLCP and TC Layer Groups
These groups provide performance statistics of the DS3 PLCP and TC
sublayer of local ATM interfaces on a managed ATM device. DS3 PLCP
and TC sublayer are currently used to carry ATM cells respectively
over DS3 and SONET transmission paths.
5.5. ATM Virtual Link and Cross-Connect Groups
ATM virtual link and cross-connect groups model bi-directional ATM
virtual links and ATM cross-connects. The ATM VP/VC link groups are
implemented in an ATM host, ATM switch and ATM network. The ATM
switch and ATM network also implement the ATM VP/VC cross-connect
groups. Both link and cross-connect groups are implemented in a
carrier's network for Customer Network Management (CNM) purposes.
The ATM virtual link groups are used to create, delete or modify ATM
virtual links in an ATM host, ATM switch and ATM network. ATM
virtual link groups along with the cross-connect groups are used to
create, delete or modify ATM cross-connects in an ATM switch or ATM
network (e.g., for CNM purposes).
6. Application of MIB II to ATM
6.1. The System Group
For the purposes of the sysServices object in the System Group of MIB
II [2], ATM is a data link layer protocol. Thus, for ATM switches
and ATM networks, sysServices will have the value "2".
6.2. The Interface Group
The Interfaces Group of MIB II defines generic managed objects for
managing interfaces. This memo contains the media-specific
extensions to the Interfaces Group for managing ATM interfaces.
This memo assumes the interpretation of the Interfaces Group to be in
accordance with [5] which states that the interfaces table (ifTable)
contains information on the managed resource's interfaces and that
each sub-layer below the internetwork layer of a network interface is
considered an interface. Thus, the ATM cell layer interface is
represented as an entry in the ifTable. This entry is concerned with
the ATM cell layer as a whole, and not with individual virtual
connections which are managed via the ATM-specific managed objects
specified in this memo. The inter-relation of entries in the ifTable
is defined by Interfaces Stack Group defined in [5].
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 8]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
6.2.1. Support of the ATM Cell Layer by ifTable
Some specific interpretations of ifTable for the ATM cell layer
follow.
Object Use for the generic ATM layer
====== =============================
ifIndex Each ATM port is represented by an ifEntry.
ifDescr Description of the ATM interface.
ifType The value that is allocated for ATM is 37.
ifSpeed The total bandwidth in bits per second
for use by the ATM layer.
ifPhysAddress The interface's address at the ATM protocol
sublayer; the ATM address which would be used
as the value of the Called Party Address
Information Element (IE) of a signalling
message for a connection which either:
- would terminate at this interface, or
- for which the Called Party Address IE
would need to be replaced by the Called
Party SubAddress IE before the message
was forwarded to any other interface.
For an interface on which signalling is
not supported, then the interface does not
necessarily have an address, but if it
does, then ifPhysAddress is the address which
would be used as above in the event that
signalling were supported. If the interface
has multiple such addresses, then ifPhysAddress
is its primary address. If the interface has
no addresses, then ifPhysAddress is an octet
string of zero length. Address encoding is as
per [9]. Note that addresses assigned for
purposes other than those listed above (e.g.,
an address associated with the service provider
side of a public network UNI) may be represented
through atmInterfaceAdminAddress.
ifAdminStatus See [5].
ifOperStatus Assumes the value down(2) if the ATM cell
layer or any layer below that layer is down.
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 9]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
ifLastChange See [5].
ifInOctets The number of received octets over the
interface, i.e., the number of received,
assigned cells multiplied by 53.
ifOutOctets The number of transmitted octets over the
interface, i.e., the number of transmitted,
assigned cells multiplied by 53.
ifInErrors The number of cells dropped due to
uncorrectable HEC errors.
ifInUnknownProtos The number of received cells discarded
during cell header validation, including
cells with unrecognized VPI/VCI values,
and cells with invalid cell header patterns.
If cells with undefined PTI values are discarded,
they are also counted here.
ifOutErrors See [5].
ifName Textual name (unique on this system) of the
interface or an octet string of zero length.
ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable Default is disabled (2).
ifConnectorPresent Set to false (2).
ifPromiscuousMode Set to false(2).
ifHighSpeed See [5].
ifHCInOctets The 64-bit version of ifInOctets; supported
if required by the compliance statements in [5].
ifHCOutOctets The 64-bit version of ifOutOctets; supported
if required by the compliance statements in [5].
7. Support of the AAL3/4 Based Interfaces
For the management of AAL3/4 CPCS layer, see [6].
8. Support of the AAL5 Managed Objects
Support of AAL5 managed objects in an ATM switch and ATM host are
described below.
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 10]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
8.1. Managing AAL5 in a Switch
Managing AAL5 in a switch involves:
(1) performance management of an AAL5 entity as
an internal resource in a switch
(2) performance management of AAL5 per virtual connection
AAL5 in a switch is modeled as shown in Figures 4 and 5. AAL5 will
be managed in a switch for only those virtual connections that carry
AAL5 and are terminated at the AAL5 entity in the switch. Note that,
the virtual channels within the ATM UNIs carrying AAL5 will be
switched by the ATM switching fabric (termed as ATM Entity in the
figure) to the virtual channels on a proprietary internal interface
associated with the AAL5 process (termed as AAL5 Entity in the
figure). Therefore, performance management of the AAL5 resource in
the switch will be modeled using the ifTable through an internal
(pseudo-ATM) virtual interface and the AAL5 performance management
per virtual connection will be supported using an additional AAL5
connection table in the ATM MIB. The association between the AAL5
virtual link at the proprietary virtual, internal interface and the
ATM virtual link at the ATM interface will be derived from the
virtual channel cross-connect table and the virtual channel link
table in the ATM MIB.

Managing AAL5 in a host involves managing the AAL5 sublayer interface
as shown in Figures 6 and 7. The AAL5 sublayer is stacked directly
over the ATM sublayer. The ifTable is applied to the AAL5 sublayer
as defined in Section 8.3.

8.3. Support of AAL5 by ifTable
The AAL5 entity in an ATM device (e.g., switch or host) is managed
using the ifTable. There are additional counters specified for AAL5
than those specified in the ATM B-ICI document [10]. Specific
interpretations of ifTable for the AAL5 CPCS layer are as follows.

to a higher-layer.
ifOutUcastPkts The number of AAL5 CPCS PDUs received from a
higher-layer for transmission.
[Note: The number of AAL5 PDUs actually
transmitted is the number received from a
higher-layer for transmission minus any which
are counted by ifOutErrors and ifOutDiscards.]
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 13]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
ifInErrors Number of errored AAL5 CPCS PDUs received.
The types of errors counted include CRC-32 errors,
SAR time-out errors, and oversized SDU errors.
ifInUnknownProtos Set to 0.
ifInDiscards Number of received AAL5 CPCS PDUs discarded.
Possible reason may be input buffer overflow.
ifOutErrors Number of AAL5 CPCS PDUs that could not
be transmitted due to errors.
ifOutDiscards Number of AAL5 CPCS PDUs received for
transmission that are discarded.
Possible reason may be output buffer
overflow.
ifInMulticastPkts Set to 0.
ifInBroadcastPkts Set to 0.
ifOutMulticastPkts Set to 0.
ifOutBroadcastPkts Set to 0.
ifName Textual name (unique on this system) of the
AAL5 entity or an octet string of zero length.
ifHighSpeed Set to 0.
ifConnectorPresent Set to false (2).
ifPromiscuousMode Set to false(2).
ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable Default is disabled (2).
8.4. Support of Proprietary Virtual Interface by ifTable
Specific interpretations of ifTable for the proprietary virtual,
internal interface associated with an AAL5 entity in an ATM switch
are as follows.
Object Use for proprietary virtual, internal interface
associated with AAL entities
====== ===============================================
ifIndex Each proprietary virtual, internal interface
associated with AAL entities is represented by an
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 14]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
ifEntry.
ifDescr Description of the proprietary virtual, internal
interface associated with AAL entities.
ifType The value that is allocated for proprietary
virtual, internal interface is 53.

known.
ifPhysAddress See [5]. An octet string of zero length
if no address is used for this interface.
ifAdminStatus See [5].
ifOperStatus See [5].
ifLastChange See [5].
ifName Textual name (unique on this system) of the
interface or an octet string of zero length.
ifHighSpeed See [5]. Set to 0 if the speed is not known.
ifConnectorPresent Set to false (2).
ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable Default is disabled (2).
8.5. AAL5 Connection Performance Statistics Group
An AAL5 connection table is used to provide AAL5 performance
information for each AAL5 virtual connection that is terminated at
the AAL5 entity contained within an ATM switch or host.
9. ILMI MIB and the ATM Managed Objects
The ILMI MIB is specified by the ATM Forum in UNI specification [9],
to manage local ATM UNIs. The support of the ATM management
functions by the ILMI MIB and those contained in this memo are
compared in Table 1. In this table, "yes" in the "ILMI MIB" column
indicates that the management functions are supported by the ILMI
MIB. The MIB groups in the "This memo" column are the groups listed
in Section 5.2.
For that subset of management information which the ILMI MIB and this
memo have in common, every effort has been made to retain identical
semantics and syntax, even though the MIB objects are identified
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 15]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
using different OBJECT IDENTIFIERs.

To create a VPL at an ATM interface,

Ahmed & Tesink [Page 33]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
Negotiated VPL establishment
(1) The management application creates
a VPL entry in the atmVplTable
by setting atmVplRowStatus to createAndWait(5).
This may fail for the following reasons:
- The selected VPI value is unavailable,
- The selected VPI value is in use.
Otherwise, the agent creates a row and
reserves the VPI value on that port.
(2) The manager selects an existing row(s) in the
atmTrafficDescrParamTable,
thereby, selecting a set of self-consistent
ATM traffic parameters and the QoS Class
for receive and transmit directions of the VPL.
(2a) If no suitable row(s) in the
atmTrafficDescrParamTable exists,
the manager must create a new row(s)
in that table.
(2b) The manager characterizes the VPL's traffic
parameters through setting the
atmVplReceiveTrafficDescrIndex and the
atmVplTransmitTrafficDescrIndex values
in the VPL table, which point to the rows
containing desired ATM traffic parameter values
in the atmTrafficDescrParamTable. The agent
will check the availability of resources and
may refuse the request.
(3) The manager activates the VPL by setting the
the atmVplRowStatus to active(1).
If this set is successful, the agent has
reserved the resources to satisfy the requested
traffic parameter values and the QoS Class
for that VPL.
(4) If the VPL terminates a VPC in the ATM host
or switch, the manager turns on the
atmVplAdminStatus to up(1) to turn the VPL
traffic flow on. Otherwise, the
atmVpCrossConnectTable must be used
to cross-connect the VPL to another VPL(s)
in an ATM switch or network.
One-Shot VPL Establishment
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 34]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
A VPL may also be established in one step by a
set-request with all necessary VPL parameter
values and atmVplRowStatus set to createAndGo(4).
In contrast to the negotiated VPL establishment
which allows for detailed error checking
(i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to
particular resource acquisition failures),
the one-shot VPL establishment
performs the setup on one operation but
does not have the advantage of step-wise
error checking.
VPL Retirement
A VPL is released by setting atmVplRowStatus to
destroy(6), and the agent may release all
associated resources."

DESCRIPTION
"An entry in the VCL table. This entry is
used to model a bi-directional VCL.
To create a VCL at an ATM interface,
either of the following procedures are used:
Negotiated VCL establishment
(1) The management application creates
a VCL entry in the atmVclTable
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 38]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
by setting atmVclRowStatus to createAndWait(5).
This may fail for the following reasons:
- The selected VPI/VCI values are unavailable,
- The selected VPI/VCI values are in use.
Otherwise, the agent creates a row and
reserves the VPI/VCI values on that port.
(2) The manager selects an existing row(s) in the
atmTrafficDescrParamTable,
thereby, selecting a set of self-consistent
ATM traffic parameters and the QoS Class
for receive and transmit directions of the VCL.
(2a) If no suitable row(s) in the
atmTrafficDescrParamTable exists,
the manager must create a new row(s)
in that table.
(2b) The manager characterizes the VCL's traffic
parameters through setting the
atmVclReceiveTrafficDescrIndex and the
atmVclTransmitTrafficDescrIndex values
in the VCL table, which point to the rows
containing desired ATM traffic parameter values
in the atmTrafficDescrParamTable. The agent
will check the availability of resources and
may refuse the request.
(3) The manager activates the VCL by setting the
the atmVclRowStatus to active(1).
If this set is successful, the agent has
reserved the resources to satisfy the requested
traffic parameter values and the QoS Class
for that VCL.
(4) If the VCL terminates a VCC in the ATM host
or switch, the manager turns on the
atmVclAdminStatus to up(1) to turn the VCL
traffic flow on. Otherwise, the
atmVcCrossConnectTable must be used
to cross-connect the VCL to another VCL(s)
in an ATM switch or network.
One-Shot VCL Establishment
A VCL may also be established in one step by a
set-request with all necessary VCL parameter
values and atmVclRowStatus set to createAndGo(4).
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 39]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
In contrast to the negotiated VCL establishment
which allows for detailed error checking
(i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to
particular resource acquisition failures),
the one-shot VCL establishment
performs the setup on one operation but
does not have the advantage of step-wise
error checking.
VCL Retirement
A VCL is released by setting atmVclRowStatus to
destroy(6), and the agent may release all
associated resources."

Step-wise Procedures to set up a VP Cross-connect
Once the entries in the atmVplTable are created,
the following procedures are used
to cross-connect the VPLs together.
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 46]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
(1) The manager obtains a unique
atmVpCrossConnectIndex by reading the
atmVpCrossConnectIndexNext object.
(2) Next, the manager creates a set of one
or more rows in the ATM VP Cross Connect
Table, one for each cross-connection between
two VPLs. Each row is indexed by the ATM
interface port numbers and VPI values of the
two ends of that cross-connection.
This set of rows specifies the topology of the
VPC cross-connect and is identified by a single
value of atmVpCrossConnectIndex.
Negotiated VP Cross-Connect Establishment
(2a) The manager creates a row in this table by
setting atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus to
createAndWait(5). The agent checks the
requested topology and the mutual sanity of
the ATM traffic parameters and
QoS Classes, i.e., the row creation fails if:
- the requested topology is not supported
by the agent,
- the traffic/QoS parameter values
associated with the requested row are
incompatible with those of already existing
rows for this VP cross-connect.
[For example, for setting up
a point-to-point VP cross-connect, the
ATM traffic parameters in the receive direction
of a VPL at the low end of the cross-connect
must equal to the traffic parameters in the
transmit direction of the other VPL at the
high end of the cross-connect,
otherwise, the row creation fails.]
The agent also checks for internal errors
in building the cross-connect.
The atmVpCrossConnectIndex values in the
corresponding atmVplTable rows are filled
in by the agent at this point.
(2b) The manager promotes the row in the
atmVpCrossConnectTable by setting
atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus to active(1). If
this set is successful, the agent has reserved
the resources specified by the ATM traffic
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 47]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
parameter and QoS Class values
for each direction of the VP cross-connect
in an ATM switch or network.
(3) The manager sets the
atmVpCrossConnectAdminStatus to up(1) in all
rows of this VP cross-connect to turn the
traffic flow on.
One-Shot VP Cross-Connect Establishment
A VP cross-connect may also be established in
one step by a set-request with all necessary
parameter values and atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus
set to createAndGo(4).
In contrast to the negotiated VP cross-connect
establishment which allows for detailed error
checking (i.e., set errors are explicitly linked
to particular resource acquisition failures),
the one-shot VP cross-connect establishment
performs the setup on one operation but does not
have the advantage of step-wise error checking.
VP Cross-Connect Retirement
A VP cross-connect identified by a particular
value of atmVpCrossConnectIndex is released by:
(1) Setting atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus of all
rows identified by this value of
atmVpCrossConnectIndex to destroy(6).
The agent may release all
associated resources, and the
atmVpCrossConnectIndex values in the
corresponding atmVplTable row are removed.
Note that a situation when only a subset of
the associated rows are deleted corresponds
to a VP topology change.
(2) After deletion of the appropriate
atmVpCrossConnectEntries, the manager may
set atmVplRowStatus to destroy(6) the
associated VPLs. The agent releases
the resources and removes the associated
rows in the atmVplTable.
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 48]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
VP Cross-connect Reconfiguration
At the discretion of the agent, a VP
cross-connect may be reconfigured by
adding and/or deleting leafs to/from
the VP topology as per the VP cross-connect
establishment/retirement procedures.
Reconfiguration of traffic/QoS parameter
values requires release of the VP cross-connect
before those parameter values may by changed
for individual VPLs."

otherwise, the row creation fails.]
The agent also checks for internal errors
in building the cross-connect.
The atmVcCrossConnectIndex values in the
corresponding atmVclTable rows are filled
in by the agent at this point.
(2b) The manager promotes the row in the
atmVcCrossConnectTable by setting
atmVcCrossConnectRowStatus to active(1). If
this set is successful, the agent has reserved
the resources specified by the ATM traffic
parameter and QoS Class values
for each direction of the VC cross-connect
in an ATM switch or network.
(3) The manager sets the
atmVcCrossConnectAdminStatus to up(1)
in all rows of this VC cross-connect to
turn the traffic flow on.
One-Shot VC Cross-Connect Establishment
A VC cross-connect may also be established in
one step by a set-request with all necessary
parameter values and atmVcCrossConnectRowStatus
set to createAndGo(4).
In contrast to the negotiated VC cross-connect
establishment which allows for detailed error
checking i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to
Ahmed & Tesink [Page 55]
RFC 1695 ATM Management Objects August 1994
particular resource acquisition failures), the
one-shot VC cross-connect establishment
performs the setup on one operation but does
not have the advantage of step-wise error
checking.
VC Cross-Connect Retirement
A VC cross-connect identified by a particular
value of atmVcCrossConnectIndex is released by:
(1) Setting atmVcCrossConnectRowStatus of all rows
identified by this value of
atmVcCrossConnectIndex to destroy(6).
The agent may release all
associated resources, and the
atmVcCrossConnectIndex values in the
corresponding atmVclTable row are removed.
Note that a situation when only a subset of
the associated rows are deleted corresponds
to a VC topology change.
(2) After deletion of the appropriate
atmVcCrossConnectEntries, the manager may
set atmVclRowStatus to destroy(6) the
associated VCLs. The agent releases
the resources and removes the associated
rows in the atmVclTable.
VC Cross-Connect Reconfiguration
At the discretion of the agent, a VC
cross-connect may be reconfigured by
adding and/or deleting leafs to/from
the VC topology as per the VC cross-connect
establishment/retirement procedures.
Reconfiguration of traffic/QoS parameter
values requires release of the VC cross-connect
before those parameter values may by changed
for individual VCLs."
