Definitions of Managed Objects for APPC using SMIv2
Alternative Format: Original Text Document
RFC 2051 SNANAU APPC MIB using SMIv2 October 1996
string "#INTER" with no space characters for appcModeAdminModeName,
regardless of how it appears in the BIND RU or in internal storage.
The lone exception is the all blank mode name, for which the agent
returns a length of 8 and the string " " (8 space characterss).
When an SNA name is functioning as a table index, an agent shall
treat trailing space characters as significant. If a Management
Station requests the objects from a row with index "#INTER ", the
agent does not match this to the row with index "#INTER". Since an
agent has no insignificant space characters in any of its table
indices, the only reason for a Management Station to include them
would be to start GetNext processing at a chosen point in a table.
For example, a GetNext request with index "M " would start
retrieval from a table at the first row with an 8-character index
beginning with M or a letter after M.
The SNA/APPC terms and overall architecture are documented in [1],
[5], and [6].
Highlights of the management functions supported by the APPC MIB
module include the following:
o Activating and deactivating statistics keeping and counting.
o Activating and deactivating tracing.
o Issuing CNOS processing verbs/commands for
INITIALIZE_SESSION_LIMIT, CHANGE_SESSION_LIMIT and
RESET_SESSION_LIMIT.
o Monitoring of parameters related to local LU, partner LU, modes,
TPs and CPI-C side information.
o Deactivating sessions.
o Monitoring of LU6.2-specific session operational parameters and
statistics, historical information about abnormally terminated
sessions, and information about APPC sessions that are
transported by APPN HPR.
o Monitoring of conversation operational parameters, and
historical information about abnormally terminated sessions.
