cienaCesDpVirtualSwitchRlanL2CftProtocolDisposition
Module: CIENA-CES-DATAPLANE-MIB
OID (symbolic): CIENA-CES-DATAPLANE-MIB::cienaCesDpVirtualSwitchRlanL2CftProtocolDisposition
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.1271.2.1.7.1.8.4.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: This object specifies the virtual switch L2CFT protocol action.
There are 2 cases :
- When 'cienaCesDpVirtualSwitchRlanL2CftStatus = disabled' or the protocol
is not in the Disposition List, then an Untagged L2CF is handled using
the ingress logical port's Default Disposition for the protocol,
while Transparent and L2PT L2CF forms are handled as normal data frames.
- When 'cienaCesDpVirtualSwitchRlanL2CftStatus = enabled' and L2CF protocol
is in the Disposition List, the L2CF is either discarded or forwarded
depending on the value of this object. An L2CF that is processed with an
L2CFT disposition of 'forward' is flooded to all logical-interfaces
in the virtual switch/RLAN forwarding-domain, and is subject to
the same egress restrictions as normal data frames.
What is cienaCesDpVirtualSwitchRlanL2CftProtocolDisposition?
This INTEGER (forward/discard) is the actual per-protocol action taken for L2 control frames of a specific protocol on this virtual switch. Choosing 'discard' for a legacy or unwanted protocol prevents it from ever being forwarded across the carrier network for that virtual switch, while 'forward' lets it tunnel through transparently to reach the customer's far-end device. Setting disposition to discard for an outdated protocol no longer needed, versus forward for STP so a customer's spanning tree domain remains intact across the carrier's transport, illustrates the choice.
