This object indicates the line status of a ds3/e3 interface.
Each bit position (bit-0 to bit-18) represents one failure
condition of the interface. Bit-19 and bit-20 are used to
represent Timing Marker bit and National Use bit. Note that
the SYNTAX type of Counter instead of INTEGER is used here
as there are more than 16 different conditions to represent.
The followings define the various bit position and their
meanings:
