Description: This object indicates the operational status of the PW, it does not reflect however the status of the CE bound interface. It is set to down only if pwNotForwarding, psnFacingPwRxFault, or psnFacingPwTxFault indications are set in pwVcLocalStatus or pwVcRemoteStatus. It indicates 'lowerLayerDown' if the only reason for not being in the 'up' state is either outer tunnel or physical layer down of the network side is in the down state. All other states are declared base on the description in the textual convention.
What is pwVcOperStatus?
Reports the pseudowire's actual operational status, independent of the state of the attached CE-facing interface; it goes down specifically when a not-forwarding or PSN-facing fault indication is set, and reports 'lowerLayerDown' when only the outer tunnel or physical network layer is down. An admin monitors this as the primary health indicator for whether the PW is actually passing customer traffic right now.
