Re: [ANCP] I-D Action: draft-ietf-ancp-mib-an-10.txt

Hi Stefaan,

regarding issue 1:
I just recognized that ancpAnSessionConfigSessionId is already implicitely contained in the trap as all objects in the trap are indexed by it. So, there was no need to defend the draft :o)

Markus

Hi Stefaan,

thanks for your comments.
1. 
My prososal is still to add ancpAnSessionConfigSessionId into the trap as this as this is the clear reference to both tables ancpAnSessionConfigTable and ancpAnCurrentSessionTable. The most practical situation in operation is a loss of adjacency and not a deletion of the ancp session.

2. 
I am not confused about your wording. The point ist that the conditions for the state "other" is not clear to me. What does it mean?

Regards
Markus

Hi Markus,

The reason why the SessionDown trap has so many objects in it, is because the row might be deleted, and then all information about the session should be in the trap.  The value of ancpAnSessionConfigSessionId only makes sense if the row is still present in the table.  The value of the other objects in trap still have a meaning even if the row is deleted.

I think you are confused by a bad wording I used below.  One of the conditions of a session being down is that the session is in another state than estab.  The state estab as in ancpAnCurrentSessionState.  This means that when ancpAnCurrentSessionState is equal to other(1), synsent(2), or synrcvd(3), then the session is down.

regards,
Stefaan

Hi Markus,

Thanks for the feedback.  For issue 1, the trap could be generated because the row is deleted from both tables.  This means that the ancpAnSessionConfigSessionId in the trap has in this case no relevant information, and might point to a wrong or non-existing entry in the table.  So I am not sure if adding this to the trap is good.
MF: Ok but the same would then also happen with the other objects in the trap as they are referenced then also by an non-exisiting table entry. However, the agent implementation in the AN must ensure the information to be delivered in the trap.

For issue 2, the state "down" is actually detailed in the next sentences: it can be down because the session is deleted, or the session is a state other than the estab state.  The estab state you find back in ancpAnCurrentSessionState.
MF: Ok but the status "other(1)" can mean anything. It is not defined that this necessarily only mean that the session is down.

regards,
Stefaan

Hi all,

Issue 1:
there are two objects for identifying an ancp sessions in the access node.    
1. ancpAnSessionConfigSessionId
2. ancpAnCurrentSessionAnInstance
The first one identifies rows in the ancpAnSessionConfigTable and in the ancpAnCurrentSessionTable wehreas the second one is a number from ANCP Adjacency Message itself and is an attribute in the ancpAnCurrentSessionTable.

Proposal:
Add the attribute ancpAnSessionConfigSessionId as a varbind in the ancpSessionUp/ancpSessionDown traps as this is the clear reference to both tables ancpAnSessionConfigTable and ancpAnCurrentSessionTable. 

Issue 2:
The definition of the ancpSessionDown trap says: "This notification is generated whenever an ANCP session goes down." bute the state 'down' is not explicitely defined in the status attribute "ancpAnCurrentSessionState" which triggers the generation of the trap.

Proposal:
Define the state 'down' in the attribute ancpAnCurrentSessionState or make the relation from the different states in the ancpAnCurrentSessionState to the phrase 'down' resp. 'operational down' more clear in the description of the ancpSessionDown trap.

Thanks and regards
Markus

Abstract:
   This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
   for use with network management protocols.  In particular it defines
   objects for managing access nodes that are using the Access Node
   Control Protocol (ANCP).
