Abstract
This memo defines a Management Information Base (MIB) module
Which contains Textual Conventions to represent commonly used
Pseudo Wire (PW) management information. The intent is that these
TEXTUAL CONVENTIONS (TCs) will be imported and used in PW related
MIB modules that would otherwise define their own representations.

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 for
Pseudo Wire (PW) technology and PWE3 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 PW
architecture [RFC3985].

PWE3 TC MIB February 2006
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
in the Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo
specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is
described in STD 58,RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579]
and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].

"Indicates the operational status of the PW.
- up(1): Ready to pass packets.
- down(2): If PW signaling has not yet finished, or
indications available at the service
level indicate that the PW is not
passing packets.
- testing(3): If AdminStatus at the PW level is set to
test.
- dormant(4): The PW is not available because the
required resources are occupied by
higher priority PWs.
- notPresent(5): Some component is missing to accomplish
the set up of the PW.
- lowerLayerDown(6):The underlying PSN or outer tunnel is not
in OperStatus 'up' state.

waitingForNextMsg(1) indicates that the node is waiting for
another label mapping from the peer.
sentWrongBitErrorCode(2) indicates that the local node has
notified the peer about mismatch in the C bit.
rxWithdrawWithWrongBitErrorCode(3) indicates that a withdraw
message has been received with the wrong C-bit error code.

illegalReceivedBit(4) indicates a C bit configuration with
the peer which is not compatible with the PW type.

require the use of the CW.
cwNotPresent(6) indicates that the CW is not present for
this PW: if signaling is used - C bit is reset and agreed
between the nodes, and for manual configured PW the local
configuration requires that CW would not be used.
notYetKnown(7) indicates that a label mapping has not yet

5 Security Considerations
Nadeau et al Expires August 2006 [page 7]
PWE3 TC MIB February 2006
This module does not define any management objects. Instead, it
defines a set of textual conventions that may be used by other PWE3
MIB modules to define management objects.
Meaningful security considerations can only be written in the MIB
modules that define management objects. Therefore, this document
has no impact on the security of the Internet.
6 IANA considerations
The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned
OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry:
Descriptor OBJECT IDENTIFIER value
---------- -----------------------
pwTcStdMIB { transmission XXXX }
Editor's Note (to be removed prior to publication): the IANA is
requested to assign a value for "XXXX" under the 'transmission'
subtree and to record the assignment in the SMI Numbers registry.
When the assignment has been made, the RFC Editor is asked to
replace "XXXX" (here and in the MIB module) with the assigned value
and to remove this note.
