gmplsFreeformLabel
Module: GMPLS-LABEL-MIB
OID (symbolic): GMPLS-LABEL-MIB::gmplsFreeformLabel
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.0.0.1.1.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: GmplsFreeformLabel
Access: read-create
Description: The value of a freeform Generalized Label that does not conform to one of the standardized label encoding or that an implementation chooses to represent as an octet string without further decoding. The length of this object is given by the value of gmplsFreeformLength. Only valid if mplsLabelType is set to other(1), gmplsLabelType is set to generalizedLabel(2), and gmplsLabelSubtype is set to freeformGeneralizedLabel(3).
What is gmplsFreeformLabel?
This value holds the raw content of a freeform Generalized Label, used for label encodings that do not fit one of the standardized formats or that an implementation chooses to represent as an unparsed octet string, with its length given by gmplsFreeformLength. An engineer or the managing system reads it when the device cannot decode a vendor- or technology-specific label into one of the other structured GMPLS label fields. For example, a proprietary optical switching label from a non-standard technology might appear here as an opaque octet string.
