Module: CIENA-CES-BENCHMARK-MIB
OID (symbolic): CIENA-CES-BENCHMARK-MIB::cienaCesBenchmarkProfileEntryPcpValidation
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.39.1.1.11.1.13
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-create
Description: Used to indicate whether the PCP value of the test packet should be used to classifier the reflected packets or not. When color remarking is used, this should be set to false. Default is true.
What is cienaCesBenchmarkProfileEntryPcpValidation?
Exactly as described, this controls whether the PCP value of returning test packets is used by the classifier, with the description specifically noting this should be set false when color remarking is in use, and defaulting to true otherwise. Color remarking, where a network device intentionally changes a packet's color marking mid-path, often also involves the device touching the PCP field, so leaving PCP validation on in that scenario would cause the classifier to reject legitimately-remarked returning packets as mismatched rather than correctly correlating them back to the originating test session. For example, testing a circuit where an intermediate switch remarks excess traffic's priority bits as part of its own QoS policy would need this set to false to avoid the reflector misclassifying that remarked traffic as belonging to the wrong test session.
