What is cpwVcName?

This is the administrator-assigned name that identifies this specific pseudowire instance, distinct from its numeric index, letting operators recognize a VC by a meaningful label rather than a raw table index. On multi-VC edge routers carrying dozens of circuits, distinguishing 'VC 47' from 'customer-acme-l2vpn-site3' in monitoring dashboards prevents costly mix-ups during maintenance. A typical value might be 'PW-NYC-LON-voice01', immediately telling an engineer which customer service the pseudowire supports.
