Module: CIENA-CES-BENCHMARK-MIB
OID (symbolic): CIENA-CES-BENCHMARK-MIB::cienaCesBenchmarkProfileEntryVidValidation
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.39.1.1.11.1.12
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-create
Description: Indicates whether VID validation is performed in the classifier or not on the returning packet. If vid validation is set to false, PCP and Color validation are ignored and automatically become false.
What is cienaCesBenchmarkProfileEntryVidValidation?
Exactly as described, this controls whether the VLAN ID of returning test packets is checked by the classifier, and per the description, disabling this automatically forces PCP and color validation off as well. Because disabling this cascades to disable two other validation checks, turning this single switch off is a much bigger change than it looks -- it loosens the entire classification strictness of the test, not just the VLAN-ID check alone, which matters when interoperating with equipment that remarks VLAN tags along the path. For example, testing across a path where an intermediate device legitimately re-tags the VLAN ID would require disabling VID validation here, which also silently stops the test from checking PCP or color correctness on the same returning packets.
