Ethernet Pseudowire (PW) Management Information Base (MIB)
Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it describes managed objects for modeling of Ethernet
pseudowire (PW) services.
Status of This Memo
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

1. Introduction
This document describes a model for managing Ethernet pseudowire
services for transmission over a Packet Switched Network (PSN). This
MIB module is generic and common to all types of PSNs supported in
the Pseudowire Emulation Edge-to-Edge (PWE3) architecture [RFC3985],
which describes the transport and encapsulation of L1 and L2 services
over supported PSN types.
In particular, the MIB module associates a port or specific VLANs on
top of a physical Ethernet port or a virtual Ethernet interface (for
Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)) to a point-to-point PW. It is
complementary to the PW-STD-MIB [RFC5601], which manages the generic
PW parameters common to all services, including all supported PSN
types.
2. The Internet-Standard Management Framework
For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current
Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of
RFC 3410 [RFC3410].
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are generally
accessed through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Objects
in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the Structure
