IEEE8021ServiceSelectorType

• Base type Enumeration

A value that represents a type (and thereby the format) of a IEEE8021ServiceSelectorValue. The value can be one of the following: ieeeReserved(0) Reserved for definition by IEEE 802.1 recommend to not use zero unless absolutely needed. vlanId(1) 12-Bit identifier as described in IEEE802.1Q. isid(2) 24-Bit identifier as described in IEEE802.1ah. tesid(3) 32 Bit identifier as described below. segid(4) 32 Bit identifier as described below. ieeeReserved(xx) Reserved for definition by IEEE 802.1 xx values can be [5..7]. To support future extensions, the IEEE8021ServiceSelectorType textual convention SHOULD NOT be sub-typed in object type definitions. It MAY be sub-typed in compliance statements in order to require only a subset of these address types for a compliant implementation. The tesid is used as a service selector for MAs that are present in bridges that implement PBB-TE functionality. A selector of this type is interpreted as a 32 bit unsigned value of type IEEE8021PbbTeTSidId. This type is used to index the Ieee8021PbbTeTeSidTable to find the ESPs which comprise the TE Service Instance named by this TE-SID value. The segid is used as a service selector for MAs that are present in bridges that implement IPS functionality. A selector of this type is interpreted as a 32 bit unsigned value of type IEEE8021TeipsSegid. This type is used to index the Ieee8021TeipsSegTable to find the SMPs which comprise the Infrastructure Segment named by this segid value. Implementations MUST ensure that IEEE8021ServiceSelectorType objects and any dependent objects (e.g., IEEE8021ServiceSelectorValue objects) are consistent. An inconsistentValue error MUST be generated if an attempt to change an IEEE8021ServiceSelectorType object would, for example, lead to an undefined IEEE8021ServiceSelectorValue value.
