prtSonetVcSignalLabel

Module: RAD-SONET-MIB

OID (symbolic): RAD-SONET-MIB::prtSonetVcSignalLabel

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.164.3.1.6.2.2.3.1.1.7

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-write

Description: Signal Label. For VC-3: The SONET standard defines the C2 byte as the path signal label. The purpose of this byte is to communicate the payload type being encapsulated by the SONET Framing OverHead. It allows a single interface to transport multiple payload types simultaneously. For VC-12, VT-1.5: VT path overhead V5 byte allocates bits 5-7 for VT Path Signal Label, to indicate the content of the VT SPE. 000 Unequipped 001 Equipped : non-specific payload 010 Asynchronous mapping 011 Bit synchronous mapping (no longer valid for DS1) 100 Byte synchronous mapping 101 Unassigned 110 Unassigned 111 Unassigned Agents that do not support this feature will send SIZE 0.

What is prtSonetVcSignalLabel?

The Signal Label byte this device transmits for the VC/VT payload type: the C2 byte for VC-3 (identifying the payload type carried in the SONET framing overhead) or the V5 byte bits 5-7 for VC-12/VT-1.5 (e.g. 001=equipped non-specific, 010=asynchronous mapping, 100=byte synchronous mapping). Agents that don't support this feature report a zero-length string.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.164.3.1.6.2.2.3.1.1.7
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RAD-SONET-MIB::prtSonetVcSignalLabel

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.164.3.1.6.2.2.3.1.1.7.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RAD-SONET-MIB::prtSonetVcSignalLabel.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.164.3.1.6.2.2.3.1.1.7.1 s <value>
