Abstract

  This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
  for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets.
  In particular, it defines objects for managing Synchronous Optical
  Network/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SONET/SDH) interfaces.  This
  document is a companion to the documents that define Managed Objects
  for the DS1/E1/DS2/E2 and DS3/E3 Interface Types.

  This memo replaces RFC 2558.  Changes relative to RFC 2558 are
  summarized in the MIB module's REVISION clause.

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 the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
  Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the
  Structure of Management Information (SMI).  This memo specifies a MIB
  module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58,
  RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580
  [RFC2580].

  Textual conventions used in this document are defined in RFC 2579
  [RFC2579] and RFC 3593 [RFC3593].

3.  Overview

  These objects are used when the particular media being used to
  realize an interface is a SONET/SDH interface.  At present, this
  applies to these values of the ifType variable in the Internet-
  standard MIB:

     sonet (39), sonetPath (50), sonetVT (51)

  The definitions contained herein are based on the SONET/SDH
  specifications in ANSI T1.105 and T1.106-1988
  [T1.105a][T1.105b][T1.106] and CCITT G.707, 708, 709, and G.783
  [G.707][G.708][G.709][G.783].

3.1.  Use of the ifTable

  This section specifies how the MIB II interfaces group, as defined in
  [RFC2863], is used for SONET/SDH interfaces.  The SONET/SDH layers
  support several multiplexing possibilities.

  For example in SONET, an Synchronous Transport Signal 3 (STS-3) has 3
  SONET Paths, and a STS-3c has 1 SONET Path.  Another example could be
  a STS-12 having 4 SONET STS-3c Paths.  Similarly, a SONET Synchronous
  Payload Envelope (SPE) can carry many Virtual Tributaries (VTs), for
  example, one SONET SPE can carry 28 VT1.5s.  It is important to note
  that an SPE and a VT in SONET is collectively referred to as a
  Virtual Container (VC) in SDH.  Also, an STS is called Synchronous
  Transport Module (STM) in SDH.

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


  Not all SONET/SDH equipment terminates all SONET/SDH layers. For
  example, a SONET/SDH STE regenerator terminates SONET/SDH Sections
  only, and is transparent for all layers above that. SONET/SDH Add-
  Drop multiplexers and Digital Cross Connect Systems terminate
  SONET/SDH Lines.  SONET/SDH Terminal Multiplexers may also terminate
  SONET/SDH Paths and VTs/VCs.

  MIB II [RFC1213], as extended by [RFC2863], accommodates these cases
  by appropriate use of the MIB II system group, and the interfaces
  group.  The system group can name and describe the type of managed
  resource.  The interfaces group defines which SONET/SDH layers apply,
  how these layers are configured and multiplexed.  This is achieved by
  proper representation of SONET/SDH Layers by ifEntries as defined in
  [RFC2863], as follows:

3.5.  SONET/SDH Terminology

  The terminology used in this document to describe error conditions on
  a SONET circuit as monitored by a SONET system are from the T1.231
  [T1M1.3][T1.231a][T1.231b].  The terminology used in this document to
  describe error conditions on a SDH circuit as monitored by a SDH
  system are from the CCITT G.783 [G.783].  Only the SONET Performance



Tesink                      Standards Track                     [Page 7]

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


  Monitoring terminology is defined in this document.  The definitions
  for SDH Performance Monitoring terms are similar but not identical,
  and they can be found in [G.783].  If the definition in this document
  does not match the definition in the T1.231 document, the implementer
  should follow the definition described in this document.  In some
  cases other or additional references are used as compared with the
  ones cited above.  This will be indicated in the text.

  Section Loss Of Frame Failure (Out of Frame Event, Severely
     Errored Frame Defect) An Out of Frame (OOF) event (or Severely
     Errored Frame defect) is the occurrence of four contiguous errored
     frame alignment words.  A frame alignment word occupies the A1 and
     A2 bytes of an STS frame, and is defined in T1.105.  The SEF
     defect is terminated when two contiguous error-free frame words
     are detected.  Any implementation of the frame recovery circuitry
     which achieves realignment following an OOF within the 250
     microsecond (two frames) interval implied by this definition is
     acceptable.

     A Loss of Frame (LOF) defect is declared when an OOF/SEF defect
     persists for a period of 3 milliseconds.  The LOF defect is
     terminated when the incoming signal remains continuously in-frame
     for a period of 1 ms to 3 ms.

     A LOF failure is declared when the LOF defect persists for a
     period of 2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds, except when an LOS defect or
     failure is present.  The LOF failure is cleared when the LOS
     failure is declared, or when the LOF defect is absent for 10 +/-
     0.5 seconds.

  Loss of Signal
     The Loss of Signal (LOS) defect is declared when no transitions
     are detected on the incoming signal (before descrambling).  The
     LOS defect is detected  upon observing 2.3 to 100 microseconds of
     no transitions.  The LOS defect is cleared after a 125 microsecond
     interval (one frame) during which no LOS defect is detected.

     The LOS failure is declared when the LOS defect persists for a
     period of 2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds, or if LOS defect is present when
     the criteria for LOF failure declaration have been met.  The LOS
     failure is cleared when the LOS defect is absent for a period of
     10 +/- 0.5 seconds.  Declaration of LOS failure clears any
     existing LOF failure.  Clearing the LOS failure allows immediate
     declaration of the LOF failure if conditions warrant.

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


  STS-Path Loss of Pointer
     A Loss of Pointer (LOP) defect is declared when either a valid
     pointer is not detected in eight consecutive frames, or when eight
     consecutive frames are detected with the New Data Flag (NDF) set
     to "1001" without a valid concatenation indicator (see ANSI
     T1.105).  A LOP defect is terminated when either a valid pointer
     with a normal NDF set to "0110", or a valid concatenation
     indicator is detected for three contiguous frames.  Incoming STS-
     Path AIS shall not result in the declaration of a LOP defect.

     An STS-Path LOP failure is declared when the STS-Path LOP defect
     persists for a period of 2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds.  A STS-Path LOP
     failure is cleared when the STS-Path LOP defect is absent for 10
     +/- 0.5 seconds.

  VT Loss of Pointer
     A VT LOP defect is declared when either a valid pointer is not
     detected in eight consecutive VT superframes, or when eight
     consecutive VT superframes are detected with the NDF set to "1001"
     without a valid concatenation indicator.  A VT LOP defect is
     terminated when either a valid pointer with a normal NDF set to
     "0110", or a valid concatenation indicator is detected for three
     contiguous VT superframes.  Incoming VT-Path AIS shall not result
     in declaring a VT LOP defect.

     A VT LOP failure is declared when the VT LOP defect persists for
     2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds.  A VT LOP failure is cleared when the VT LOP
     defect is absent for 10 +/- 0.5 seconds.

  Line Alarm Indication Signal
     A Line Alarm Indication Signal (L-AIS) is defined in ANSI T1.105.
     The following criteria are specific to the L-AIS defect:

     -  Line AIS defect is detected as a "111" pattern in bits 6, 7,
        and 8 of the K2 byte in five consecutive frames.

     -  Line AIS defect is terminated when bits 6, 7, and 8 of the K2
        byte do not contain the code "111" for five consecutive frames.

     A Line AIS failure is declared when the Line AIS defect persists
     for a period of 2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds.  A Line AIS failure is
     cleared when the Line AIS defect is absent for 10 +/- 0.5 seconds.

  STS-Path Alarm Indication Signal
     The STS-Path Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) is defined in ANSI
     T1.105 as all ones in bytes H1, H2, and H3 as well as all ones in
     the entire STS SPE.  The following criteria are specific to the
     STS-Path AIS defect:



Tesink                      Standards Track                     [Page 9]

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


     -  STS-Path AIS defect is detected as all ones in bytes H1 and H2
        in three contiguous frames.

     -  The STS-Path AIS defect is terminated when a valid STS Pointer
        is detected with the NDF set to "1001" (inverted) for one
        frame, or  "0110" (normal) for three contiguous frames.

     An STS-Path AIS failure is declared when the STS-Path AIS defect
     persists for 2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds.  An STS-Path AIS failure is
     cleared when the STS-Path AIS defect is absent for 10 +/- 0.5
     seconds.

  VT-Path Alarm Indication Signal
     The VT-Path Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) is only applicable for
     VTs in the floating mode of operation.  VT-Path AIS is used to
     alert the downstream VT Path Terminating Entity (PTE) of an
     upstream failure.  Upon detection of a failure, Line AIS, or STS-
     Path AIS, an STS PTE will generate downstream VT-Path AIS if the
     STS Synchronous Payload Envelope (SPE) is carrying floating VTs.
     VT-Path AIS is specified in ANSI T1.105 as all ones in bytes V1,
     V2, V3, and V4, as well as all ones in the entire VT SPE.  The
     following criteria are specific to VT-Path AIS defect:

     -  VT-Path AIS defect is detected by a VT PTE as all ones in bytes
        V1 and V2 in three contiguous VT superframes.

     -  VT-Path AIS defect is terminated when valid VT pointer with a
        valid VT size is detected with the NDF set to "1001" (inverted)
        for one VT superframe, or "0110" (normal) for three contiguous
        VT superframes are detected.

     A VT-Path AIS failure is declared when the VT-Path AIS defect
     persists for 2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds.  A VT-Path AIS failure is
     cleared when the VT-Path AIS defect is absent for 10 +/- 0.5
     seconds.

  Line Remote Defect Indication
     Line Remote Defect Indication (RDI) (aka Line FERF) signal is the
     occurrence of a "110" pattern in bit positions 6, 7, and 8 of the
     K2 byte in STS-1 #1 of the STS-N signal.  Line RDI is defined in
     ANSI T1.105.  The following criteria are specific to Line RDI
     defect:

     -  Line RDI defect is a "110" code in bits 6, 7, and 8 of the K2
        byte of in STS-1 #1 in x consecutive frames, where x = 5
        [T1.231a][T1.231b] or 10 [T1.231b].





Tesink                      Standards Track                    [Page 10]

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


     -  Line RDI defect is terminated when any code other than "110" is
        detected in bits 6, 7, and 8 of the K2 byte in x consecutive
        frames, where x = 5 [T1.231a][T1.231b] or 10 [T1.231b].

     A Line Remote Failure Indication (RFI) failure is declared when
     the incoming Line RDI defects lasts for 2.5 +/- 0.5 seconds.  The
     Line RFI failure is cleared when no Line RDI defects are detected
     for 10 +/- 0.5 seconds.

  STS-Path Remote Defect Indication
     STS-Path RDI (aka STS-Path FERF) signal shall be generated within
     100 milliseconds by the STS PTE upon detection of an AIS or LOP
     defect.  Transmission of the STS-Path RDI signal shall cease
     within 100 milliseconds when the STS PTE no longer detects STS-
     Path AIS or STS-Path LOP defect.  The STS-Path RDI  shall
     accurately report the presence or absence of STS-Path AIS or STS-
     Path LOP defects.  STS-Path RDI defect is defined in ANSI T1.105.
     The following requirements are specific to the STS-Path RDI
     defect:

     -  STS-Path RDI is detected by all STS PTEs.  STS-Path RDI is
        detected by the upstream STS PTE as a "1" in bit five of the
        Path Status byte (G1) for x consecutive frames, where x = 5
        [T1.231a] or 10 [T1.231b].

     -  Removal of STS-Path Remote Defect Indication is detected by a
        "0" in bit 5 of the G1 byte in x consecutive frames, where x =
        5 [T1.231a] or 10 [T1.231b].

     An STS-Path Remote Failure Indication (RFI) failure is declared
     when the incoming STS-Path RDI defects lasts for 2.5 +/- 0.5
     seconds.  The STS-Path RFI failure is cleared when no STS-Path RDI
     defects are detected for 10 +/- 0.5 seconds.

  VT-Path Remote Defect Indication
  VT Path RDI (aka VT Path FERF) signal shall be generated within 100
     milliseconds by the VT PTE upon detection of a VT-Path AIS or LOP
     defect.  Transmission of the VT-Path RDI signal shall cease within
     100 milliseconds when the VT PTE no longer detects VT-Path AIS or
     VT-Path LOP defect.  The VT-Path RDI  shall accurately report the
     presence or absence of VT-Path AIS or VT-Path LOP defects.  VT-
     Path RDI defect is defined in ANSI T1.105.  The following
     requirements are specific to VT-Path RDI defect:

     -  VT-Path RDI defect is the occurrence of a "1" in bit 4 of the
        VT-Path Overhead byte (V5) in x consecutive frames, where x = 5
        [T1.231a] or 10 [T1.231b].

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


     -  VT-Path RDI defect is terminated when a "0" is detected in bit
        4 of the VT-Path Overhead byte (V5) for x consecutive frames,
        where x = 5 [T1.231a] or 10 [T1.231b].

     A VT-Path Remote Failure Indication (RFI) (derived) failure is
     declared when the incoming VT-Path RDI defects lasts for 2.5 +/-
     0.5 seconds.  The VT-Path RFI failure is cleared when no VT-Path
     RDI defects are detected for 10 +/- 0.5 seconds.

  VT-Path Remote Failure Indication
     The VT-Path RFI signal is only required for the case of byte synch
     mapped DS1s where the DS1 frame bit is not mapped.  The VT-Path
     RFI is specified in ANSI T1.105, where it is currently called VT
     path yellow.  When provided, the VT-Path RFI signal is used to
     indicate the occurrence of far-end failures.  When the VT-Path RFI
     is not provided, far-end failures are derived from local timing of
     the VT-Path RDI defect.  The VT-Path RFI failure is declared
     within 5 ms of detecting the incoming VT-Path RFI Signal.  The
     VT-Path Remote Failure Indication (RFI) failure is cleared within
     50 ms of detecting the removal of the incoming VT-Path RFI signal.

  Coding Violation
     Coding Violations (CV) are Bit Interleaved Parity (BIP) errors
     that are detected in the incoming signal.  CV counters are
     incremented for each BIP error detected.  That is, each BIP-8 can
     detect up to eight errors per STS-N frame, with each error
     incrementing the CV counter.  Section CVs shall be collected using
     the BIP-8 in the B1 byte located in the Section Overhead of STS-1
     #1.  Line CVs shall be collected using the BIP-8s in B2 bytes
     located in the Line Overhead of each STS-1 (since all CVs on an
     STS-N line are counted together, this is equivalent to counting
     each error in the BIP-8*N contained in the B2 bytes of the STS-N
     Line Overhead).  Thus, on an STS-N signal, up to 8 x N CVs may
     occur in each frame.  Path CVs shall be collected using the BIP-8
     in the B3 byte of the STS-Path Overhead of the STS SPE.  VT CVs
     shall be collected using the BIP-2 in the V5 overhead byte of the
     floating VT.

  Errored Seconds
     At each layer, an Errored Second (ES) is a second with one or more
     Coding Violations at that layer OR one or more incoming defects
     (e.g., SEF, LOS, AIS, LOP) at that layer has occurred.

  Severely Errored Seconds
     According to [T1M1.3][T1.231a][TR253][GR253][T1.231b] at each
     layer, an Severely Errored Second (SES) is a second with x or more
     CVs at that layer, or a second during which at least one or more
     incoming defects at that layer has occurred.  The values of x in



Tesink                      Standards Track                    [Page 12]

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


     RFC 1595 [RFC1595] were based on [T1M1.3] and [TR253] (see
     Appendix B).  These values have subsequently been relaxed in
     [T1.231a][GR253][T1.231b].  In addition, according to G.826
     [G.826] SESs are measured as a percentage of errored blocks.

     To deal with these sets of definitions this memo defines an object
     sonetSESthresholdSet that determines the correct interpretation of
     SES.  For backward compatibility, if this object is not
     implemented the interpretation of Appendix B shall apply.
     Otherwise, a more recent interpretation is suggested.  An agent is
     not required to support all sets of definitions.

     Note that CV counts should be frozen during SESs.

     Note that if a manager changes the value of this object all SES
     statistics collected prior to this change shall be invalidated.

  Severely Errored Framing Seconds
     A Severely Errored Framing Second (SEFS) is a second containing
     one or more SEF events.  This counter is only counted at the
     Section Layer.

  Unavailable Seconds
     At the Line, Path, and VT layers, an unavailable second is
     calculated by counting the number of seconds that the interface is
     unavailable.  At each layer, the SONET/SDH interface is said to be
     unavailable at the onset of 10 contiguous SESs.  The 10 SESs are
     included in unavailable time.  Once unavailable, the SONET/SDH
     interface becomes available at the onset of 10 contiguous seconds
     with no SESs.  The 10 seconds with no SESs are excluded from
     unavailable time.  With respect to the SONET/SDH error counts at
     each layer, all counters at that layer are incremented while the
     SONET/SDH interface is deemed available at that layer.  While the
     interface is deemed unavailable at that layer, the only count that
     is incremented is UASs at that layer.

     Note that this definition implies that the agent cannot determine
     until after a ten second interval has passed whether a given one-
     second interval belongs to available or unavailable time.  If the
     agent chooses to update the various performance statistics in real
     time then it must be prepared to retroactively reduce the ES, SES,
     and SEFS counts by 10 and increase the UAS count by 10 when it
     determines that available time has been entered.  It must also be
     prepared to reduce the CV count by the number of violations
     counted since the onset of unavailable time.  The agent must be
     similarly prepared to retroactively decrease the UAS count by 10
     and increase the ES and CV counts as necessary upon entering
     available time.  A special case exists when the 10 second period



Tesink                      Standards Track                    [Page 13]

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


     leading to available or unavailable time crosses a 900 second
     statistics window boundary, as the foregoing description implies
     that the CV, ES, SES, SEFS, and UAS counts the PREVIOUS interval
     must be adjusted.  In this case successive GETs of the affected
     sonetPathIntervalSES and sonetPathIntervalUAS objects (and the
     analogous Line and VT objects also) objects will return differing
     values if the first GET occurs during the first few seconds of the
     window.

     According to ANSI T1.231 unavailable time begins at the _onset_ of
     10 contiguous severely errored seconds -- that is, unavailable
     time starts with the _first_ of the 10 contiguous SESs.  Also,
     while an interface is deemed unavailable all counters for that
     interface are frozen except for the UAS count.  It follows that an
     implementation which strictly complies with this standard must
     _not_ increment any counters other than the UAS count -- even
     temporarily -- as a result of anything that happens during those
     10 seconds.  Since changes in the signal state lag the data to
     which they apply by 10 seconds, an ANSI-compliant implementation
     must pass the one-second statistics through a 10-second delay line
     prior to updating any counters.  That can be done by performing
     the following steps at the end of each one second interval.

     i)   Read near/far end CV counter and alarm status flags from the
          hardware.

     ii)  Accumulate the CV counts for the preceding second and compare
          them to the ES and SES threshold for the layer in question.
          Update the signal state and shift the one-second CV counts
          and ES/SES flags into the 10-element delay line.  Note that
          far-end one-second statistics are to be flagged as "absent"
          during any second in which there is an incoming defect at the
          layer in question or at any lower layer.

     iii) Update the current interval statistics using the signal state
          from the _previous_ update cycle and the one-second CV counts
          and ES/SES flags shifted out of the 10-element delay line.

     This approach is further described in Appendix A.  An agent may
     choose to use this approach in lieu of retroactive adjustments to
     the counters.

     In any case, a linkDown trap shall be sent only after the agent
     has determined for certain that the unavailable state has been
     entered, but the time on the trap will be that of the first UAS
     (i.e., 10 seconds earlier).  A linkUp trap shall be handled
     similarly.

  Unequipped
     If a Path or VT connection is not provisioned (idle) the SONET
     equipment will signal this state by transmitting the Path or VT
     Signal Label as follows:  - byte C2 of the STS Path Overhead equal
     to 0 for an unequipped Path, - byte V5 of the VT Path Overhead
     equal to 0 for an unequipped VT.

  Signal Label Mismatch
     A Path or VT connection is not correctly provisioned if a received
     Path or VT Signal Label mismatch occurs.  A received Signal Label
     is considered mismatched if it does not equal either the locally
     provisioned value or the value 'equipped non-specific' (1 hex).
     Note that any received non-zero Signal Label is considered a
     locally provisioned value of 'equipped non-specific'.  Only in-
     service, provisioned Path Terminating equipment can detect
     mismatched Signal labels.  It is considered provisioned if it has
     been configured for a mapping and has been assigned signals to and
     from which the mapping takes place.  While a Path is unequipped or
     has mismatched signal labels ES/SES counts continue, but these
     conditions do not themselves contribute to ES/SES.

  Circuit Identifier
     This is a character string specified by the circuit vendor, and is

RFC 3592                   SONET/SDH Objects              September 2003


          The key changes made to this MIB module
          since its initial publication in RFC 1595
          are as follows.

          (1) The MODULE-IDENTITY has been updated to reflect the
              changes to the MIB.

          (2) Where applicable, the textual conventions
              PerfCurrentCount and PerfIntervalCount from
              PerfHist-TC-MIB have been used in place of Gauge32.

          (3) An agent now has the option to delay updates to
              the various performance counts in lieu of performing
              retroactive adjustments upon entering into or exiting
              from unavailable time. This implementation option is
              described in Appendix A of this memo.

          (4) In order to make the SONET-MIB more useful for
              circuit provisioning, the formerly read-only objects
              sonetMediumType, sonetMediumLineCoding,
              sonetMediumLineType, and sonetMediumCircuitIdentifier
              have been given a MAX-ACCESS of read-write. The
              MIN-ACCESS remains read-only.

          (5) The DESCRIPTION clause for sonetMediumTimeElapsed has
              been updated to describe its behaviour if the duration
              of the current interval exceeds the maximum value.

          (6) The DESCRIPTION clause for sonetMediumValidIntervals
              has been updated to describe its behaviour when some
              intervals may be unavailable, and the object
              sonetMediumInvalidIntervals has been added to keep
              count of the number of missing intervals (if any).

          (7) The object sonetMediumLoopbackConfig has been added
              to enable or disable loopback configurations.

          (8) Because the error count thresholds for declaring
              severely errored seconds that are specified in ANSI
              T1.231-1993, ITU-T G.826-1995, and ANSI T1.231-1997
              are all different from each other and from the thresholds
              specified in RFC 1595, an enumerated INTEGER object
              sonetSESthresholdSet has been added to allow an agent
              to specify which threshold set is in use. Text has
              been added to Section 3 stating that if this object is
              not implemented the thresholds specified in RFC 1595
              should be assumed, and the table containing those
              thresholds has been moved to Appendix B of this memo.

          (9) A column with SYNTAX TruthValue has been added to each
              interval table.  The purpose of the additional column
              is to indicate, for each interval, whether the data
              is valid in the sense intended by ANSI T1.231 clause
              9.1.2.2 [T1.231a][T1.231b]. The objects in question are:

                  sonetVTIntervalValidData
                  sonetFarEndVTIntervalValidData

         (10) The ranges for sonetPathCurrentStatus and
              sonetVTCurrentStatus have been made consistent
              with the DESCRIPTION clauses.

         (11) The conformance information has been updated. Previous
              conformance information from RFC 1595 has been
              deprecated. Some typographical errors in the deprecated
              section have been corrected in order to prevent

5.  Acknowledgments

  This specification is a product of the AToM MIB Working Group.  The
  author would like to acknowledge Mike Heard for his many valuable
  contributions to this memo.

6.  Security Considerations

  There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module
  that have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write:  sonetMediumType,
  sonetMediumLineCoding, sonetMediumLineType,
  sonetMediumCircuitIdentifier, sonetMediumLoopbackConfig,
  sonetSESthresholdSet, sonetPathCurrentWidth, and sonetVTCurrentWidth.
  It is possible for writes to these objects to have disruptive effects
  on network operation that range from invalid performance data to
  traffic interruptions.  Users of this MIB module must therefore be
  aware that support for SET operations in a non-secure environment
  without proper protection can have a negative effect on network
  operations.

  The readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., the objects with a
  MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive in
  some environments since, collectively, they provide extensive
  information about the performance of interfaces in SONET/SDH
  equipment or networks and can reveal some aspects of their
  configuration.  In such environments it is important to control even
  GET and NOTIFY access to these objects and possibly to encrypt the
  values of these objects when sending them over the network via SNMP.

  SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
  Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPSec),
  even then, there is no control as to who on the secure network is
  allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects
  in this MIB module.

  It is RECOMMENDED that implementers consider the security features as
  provided by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410], section 8),
  including full support for the SNMPv3 cryptographic mechanisms (for
  authentication and privacy).

  Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT
  RECOMMENDED.  Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to
  enable cryptographic security.  It is then a customer/operator
  responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an

  instance of this MIB module is properly configured to give access to
  the objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate
  rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.

Appendix A:  The delay-line approach to statistics collection.

  According to ANSI T1.231 unavailable time begins at the onset of 10
  contiguous severely errored seconds -- that is, unavailable time
  starts with the first of the 10 contiguous SESs -- and while an
  interface is deemed unavailable all counters for that interface are
  frozen except for the UAS count.  Since changes in the signal state
  lag the data to which they apply by 10 seconds, an implementation
  which wishes to avoid making retroactive adjustments to the counts
  must pass the the one-second statistics through a 10-second delay
  line prior to updating any counters.  That can be done by performing
  the following steps at the end of each one second interval.

  i)   Read near/far end line and path CV counts and alarm status flags
       from the hardware.

  ii)  Accumulate the CV counts for the preceding second and compare
       them to the ES and SES threshold for the layer in question.
       Update the signal state and shift the one-second CV counts and
       ES/SES flags into the 10-element delay line.  Note that far-end
       one-second statistics are to be flagged as "absent" during any
       second in which there is an incoming defect at the layer in
       question or at any lower layer.

  iii) Update the current interval statistics using the signal state
       from the previous update cycle and the one-second CV counts and
       ES/SES flags shifted out of the 10-element delay line.

  This procedure guarantees that the statistical counters will be
  correctly updated at all times, although they lag real time by 10
  seconds.  It is illustrated in the figure below.  At the end of each
  15 minutes interval the current interval counts are transferred to
  the  most recent interval entry and each interval is shifted up by
  one position, with the oldest being discarded if necessary in order
  to make room.  The current interval counts then start over from zero.
  Note, however, that the signal state calculation does not start anew
  at each interval boundary;  rather, signal state information is
  retained across interval boundaries.
