RE: [ipcdn] question on docsIfCmtsServiceNewCmStatusIndex in

Or simplified, a Service Queue would not exist in the absence of a
parent CM (non-zero-docsIfCmtsServiceNewCmStatusIndex case) or multicast
group defined by the CMTS (the "multiple Cable Modems" zero-
docsIfCmtsServiceNewCmStatusIndex case).

Randy, I will answer on details your q. by COB today.
Also have in the Queue Bert's Questions whichI am resolving in
conjuction.

To this Q, all CMTS are associated to a Queue service (have to) .
So one CM either has its own particular Queue service, or a group (all
cms) are using the same Queue. 

RFC 2670 did not defined in docsIfCmtsCmStatusTable (per modem) the
matching ServiceQueue it belongs to, thus, by RFC 2670, it is probably
safe to say that only one Service Queue group is available. 

All the Service Queue mechanism (Class of Service) is being replaced for
the service Flow QoS mechanism in the Qos MIB. The service Queue
mechanism is being left as defined in RFC 2670 as backward compatibility
support of DOCSIS 1.0 technology.

Hi -

A question on docsIfCmtsServiceNewCmStatusIndex  in
draft-ietf-ipcdn-docs-rfmibv2-12.txt

The definition says:

docsIfCmtsServiceNewCmStatusIndex OBJECT-TYPE
        SYNTAX      Integer32 (0..2147483647)
        MAX-ACCESS  read-only
        STATUS      current
        DESCRIPTION
            "Pointer (via docsIfCmtsCmStatusIndex) to an entry in
             docsIfCmtsCmStatusTable identifying the Cable Modem
             using this Service Queue.  If multiple Cable Modems are
             using this Service Queue, the value of this object is
             zero."
        ::= { docsIfCmtsServiceEntry 8 }

What value would it have if no Cable Modems are using this Service
Queue?

Randy
