nortelNMInotifyAlarmComponentId – NORTEL-NMI-FAULT-NOTI-MIB

Object

scalar SNMPv2-TCDisplayString

This variable represents the Distinguished Name (DN) 
(refer X.720) of the component object against which the 
particular alarm is raised. The entire component hierarchy 
should be presented in the category-value information
model to unambiguosly identify the specific component 
object instance.  Here category refers to the type of the 
component and value refers to the
instance identifier, both are represented as strings.
          
The format of the string is
          
    NEtype=NEname;component class=component instance Id;.... 
          
The root component is always the NE and the NE is identified 
via its type as the category and the value as the NE name. 
The managed element class for the NE is implicitly assumed.
The NE type is based on NortelNMIneType textual convention. 
          
With NE as the root, the entire containment with the list of
Relative Distinguished Names (RDNs) is presented upto the 
point where the alarming component is clearly identified.
          
Semicolon is the delimiter between a 'category=value' pair.
The string can only contain alphanumeric characters and 
underscores. No commas, spaces, slashes, hyphens, or
dollar signs is allowed.

How SNMP and these commands work

Scalars have one instance, identified by the .0 suffix.

Syntax

SNMPv2-TCDisplayString

Source: SNMPv2-TCDisplayString
Base type: OctetString
Display format: 255a

Type Description

Represents textual information taken from the NVT ASCII
          
character set, as defined in pages 4, 10-11 of RFC 854.
          
To summarize RFC 854, the NVT ASCII repertoire specifies:
          
  - the use of character codes 0-127 (decimal)
          
  - the graphics characters (32-126) are interpreted as
    US ASCII
          
  - NUL, LF, CR, BEL, BS, HT, VT and FF have the special
    meanings specified in RFC 854
          
  - the other 25 codes have no standard interpretation
          
  - the sequence 'CR LF' means newline
          
  - the sequence 'CR NUL' means carriage-return
          
  - an 'LF' not preceded by a 'CR' means moving to the
    same column on the next line.
          
  - the sequence 'CR x' for any x other than LF or NUL is
    illegal.  (Note that this also means that a string may
    end with either 'CR LF' or 'CR NUL', but not with CR.)
          
Any object defined using this syntax may not exceed 255
characters in length.
