This MIB is to support the CDMA PDSN (Packet Data Serving
Node) feature.  A CDMA2000 network supports wireless data
communication through 3G CDMA radio access technology and
3G A10/A11 interface.  PDSN acts as a foreign agent that
establishes, maintains and terminates the link layer to a
mobile station.

The high level architecture of a third generation CDMA2000
network is shown below:

The CDMA PDSN MIB provides operational information for a 
CDMA PDSN implementation.  The following areas are managed:

    1) Global PDSN information.  This area contains generic
       information such as the number of active/failed
       sessions, PDSN hostname.

    2) PDSN session information.  This area contains 
       details about PPP sessions maintained by the
       PDSN router and other related information such as
       flows or PCF. 

    3) Failure notification.  This area contains details
       of notifications sent to network management
       applications in case of session failure.


Acronyms and terms:

  A10/A11         A10 interface is a virtual interface
  interface       used for transporting data between
                  the RAN and the PDSN.

                  A11 interface is the signaling
                  protocol used for maintaining a
                  logical connection between the RAN
                  and PDSN.

  FA              Foreign Agent

  Foreign Agent   A router on a mobile node's visited
                  network which provides routing
                  services to the mobile node while
                  registered.  The foreign agent
                  delivers datagrams to the mobile
                  node that were tunneled by the
                  mobile node's home agent.
                  For datagrams sent by a mobile node,
                  the foreign agent may serve as a
                  default router for registered mobile
                  nodes.  Refer to RFC 2002 for more
                  details.

  HA              Home Agent

  Home Agent      A router on a mobile node's home
                  network which tunnels datagrams for
                  delivery to the mobile node when it
                  is away from home, and maintains
                  current location information for the
                  mobile node.  Refer to RFC 2002 for
                  more details.
