I have a question regarding automatic configuration procedures for ATM layer interface attributes: ILMI 4.0 Specifications section 8.2.3.2 states: "Each IME should retrieve the value of this object from its peer at ILMI initialization, and should compare the retrieved value with the local value of this object. The actual number of Active VPI bits should be set to the minimum of the two values in order to guarantee interoperability. The local value of this object should not be modified even if the retrieved value is different, and should always remain constant unless changed through management" I have following questions/confusions regarding the above statement: 1. Where is the actual number of the active VPI bits set after taking the minimum of the two? Is it in the MIB or somewhere else? 2. It says the local value of this object should not be modified. What is meant by local value of this object? Is it the MIB? or the source from where the value is retrieved locally into the MIB? 3. Which value should only be changed through management? It cannot be MIB object, as it is Read-only. Can anyone please explain how should this be implemented? Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks & Regards, Shishir ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com |
