Cisco ATM PVC Entry

1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.94.1.1.1.1

An entry in the PVC table containing information about a single PVC that has been configured. To create a PVC at an ATM interface and bind it to a VLAN, either of the following procedures are used : Multi step process (1) The management application creates a PVC entry in the capvcTable by setting the capvcRowStatus to createAndWait(5). This may fail for the following reasons: - The selected vpi/vci is already being used. - The selected port is not available. Otherwise, the agent creates a row and reserves the vpi/vci on that port. (2) The manager then sets the values for the capvcVlanId, capvcType and optionally, the capvcPCR, capvcOAM and capvcFrequency. (3) The manager activates the PVC by setting the capvcRowStatus to active(1). One-Shot PVC establishment (1) A PVC may also be established in one step by a set-request with all necessary PVC parameter values and the capvcRowStatus set to createAndGo(4). In contrast to the multi step process which allows for detailed error checking (i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to particular resource acquisition failures), the one-shot PVC establishment performs the setup on one operation but does not have the advantage of step-wise error checking. PVC Retirement A PVC is released by setting the capvcRowStatus to destroy(6), and the agent may release all associated resources.
