CISCO-OPTICAL-PATCH-MIB file content

The SNMP protocol is used to for conveying information and commands between agents and managing entities. SNMP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as the transport protocol for passing data between managers and agents. The reasons for using UDP for SNMP are, firstly it has low overheads in comparison to TCP, which uses a 3-way hand shake for connection. Secondly, in congested networks, SNMP over TCP is a bad idea because TCP in order to maintain reliability will flood the network with retransmissions.

Management information (MIB) is represented as a collection of managed objects. These objects together form a virtual information base called MIB. An agent may implement many MIBs, but all agents must implement a particular MIB called MIB-II [16]. This standard defines variables for things such as interface statistics (interface speeds, MTU, octets sent, octets received, etc.) as well as various other things pertaining to the system itself (system location, system contact, etc.). The main goal of MIB-II is to provide general TCP/IP management information.

    DESCRIPTION
        "This MIB module is used to configure and monitor the network
        element view of optical patches between two ports or 
        fibers on the same network element.

        It is up to the user to keep the provisioned information that
        is reflected in this MIB module in sync with the actual patches
        present between ports or fibers on the network element.
        Provisioning of a patch does not cause a patch to be inserted;
        it only informs the network element that a patch has been, or
        is soon to be, added or removed."

    REVISION  "200203180000Z" -- 03/18/2002
    DESCRIPTION
        "This revision adds support for patching one interface to two
         different interfaces in the receive and transmit directions.

         This revision deprecates the cOPatchInterfaceTable and 
         replaces it with the new cOPatchIntfTable. This new table
         includes the cOPatchIntfDirection object along with ifIndex
         as part of the table index. The cOPatchIntfDirection object
         identifies whether this interface is patched to another
         interface within a network element in the receive, transmit
         or both directions.

         A new object cOPatchDirOnLowIf is added to the cOPatchTable
         in order to identify the patch direction relative to the
         interface with low ifIndex."

        Provisioning of a patch in this table does not cause a patch to

        Each entry in the table models a unidirectional or
        bidirectional patch between two interfaces on the same
        network element. When one interface is patched to two
        different interfaces, one in the receive direction and
        the other in the transmit direction, the interface will
        appear in two different entries in the table.

        The terms low and high are chosen to represent numerical
        ordering of the two interfaces associated with a patch.  That
        is, the interface with the lower value of ifIndex is termed
