Object

table
A table of system level information for each interface
supported by the KaY (Key Agreement Entity).  This table will
be instantiated if the object ieee8021XPaePortKayMkaEnable in
the corresponding entry of the ieee8021XPaePortTable is 'true'.
          
The following terms are used to identify roles within the MKA
protocol or protocol scenarios and the MIB description :
          
participant : An instance of MKA, transmitting and receiving
    frames protected by keys derived from a single CAK, and
    operating with positive intent, obeying the protocol.
          
member: A participant that possesses the CAK that can be used
    to prove liveness and to obtain membership in the CA under
    discussion.
          
actor: The participant under discussion, usually in the KaY
    being described.
          
partners: Participants or members attached to the same LAN as
    the actor, excluding the actor.
          
principal actor: The actor controlling the PAC or SecY
    associated with the KaY.
          
Each participant selects the live participant advertising the
highest priority as its key server provided that participant
has not selected another as its key server or is unwilling to
act as the key server.  If a key server cannot be selected SAKs
are not distributed.  In the event of a tie for highest
priority key server, the member with the highest priority SCI
is chosen.  For consistency with other uses of the SCI's MAC
Address component as a priority, numerically lower values of
the key server priority and SCI are accorded the highest
priority.
          
For the writeable objects in this table, the configured value
shall be stored in persistent memory and remain unchanged
across a re-initialization of the management system of the
entity.
