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 defines Textual Conventions used in 
  IETF for 
  Pseudo Wire (PW) technology and PWE3 MIBs. MIB modules. 
      
  This document adopts the definitions, acronyms and mechanisms 
  described in [RFC3985]. Unless otherwise stated, the mechanisms of 
  [RFC3985] apply and will not be re-described here. 
   
  Comments should be made directly to the PWE3 mailing list at 
  pwe3@ietf.org. 
      
  For an introduction to the concepts of Pseudo-Wires, see [PWREQ] 
  and [RFC3985]. 
   
Conventions used in this document 
  The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", 
  "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in 
  this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

2  Terminology 
   
  This document uses terminology from the document describing the PWE3 PW 
  architecture [RFC3985].

3 The Internet-Standard Management Framework  
    
  For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current   
  Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 
  of RFC 3410 [RFC3410]. 
   
  Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, 
  termed the Management Information Base or MIB.  MIB objects are 
  generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol 
  (SNMP). Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined

  This module does not define any
   Intellectual Property Rights or other rights management objects. Instead, it 
  defines a set of textual conventions that might may be claimed to
   pertain used by other PWE3 
  MIB modules to define management objects. 
   
  Meaningful security considerations can only be written in the implementation or use MIB 
  modules that define management objects. Therefore, this document 
  has no impact on the security of the technology described Internet.

  This module does not define any management objects. Instead, it 
  defines a set of textual conventions which may be used by other 
  MPLS MIB modules to define management objects.
