docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionConfigEntry

A conceptual row for this table.
Entries are created by either management operations or 
other M-CMTS applications or interfaces (e.g., ERMI), the
persistence of an entry is indicated in 
docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionConfigStorage.
            
The DEPI connection mechanism using L2TPv3 is initiated 
when an entry in this table is set to active. The 
following conditions apply: 
            
o If the M-CMTS L2TPv3 Control Connection with the remote
  EQAM Host IP in docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionConfigRemoteAddr 
  does not exist, a DEPI L2TPv3 control Connection is 
  created.
            
o There may be cases where the control plane with the EQAM
  IP host exists or is in progress, (e.g., a previously 
  created entry with same EQAM IP host), thus the M-CMTS
  MUST avoid multiple L2TP Control Connection State 
  machines.
            
o DEPI L2TPv3 sessions are created based on the TSID 
  value. Only the first entry with row status 'active'
  with a particular TSID value will try to establish a 
  L2TPv3 session. Other entries with same TSID value 
  return state of 'depiSessionError' in 
  docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionInfoState. 
            
Relationships with the DOCSIS MAC domain IfStackTable:
            
This control considers the ability of the M-CMTS to use a
manager-specified Downstream interface value 
for the configuration of the DOCSIS MAC domain downstream
interfaces of the M-CMTS architecture.
            
o When docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionConfigCableDownstreamIfIndex 
  is a non-zero value the value of 
  docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionConfigCableMacLayerIfIndex MUST be
  an existing DOCSIS MAC layer interface. 
            
o If an entry in this table already exists for the specified
  docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionConfigCableDownstreamIfIndex,
  or corresponds to an ifIndex signaled as 
  'integrated' in docsIfMCmtsDownstreamType a
  newly created entry set to active is rejected and 
  reported in docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionInfoState as 
  'invalidDSInterfaceValue'.
            
o The M-CMTS accepts or rejects the creation of a new 
  table entry based on the possibility of adding a new 
  Downstream interface to the MAC domain. On success it
  is reported in docsIfMCmtsDownstreamType as 
  'depiSession'.
            
Relationship with M-CMTS Downstream Interface tables:
            
Setting an entry to active creates or updates (when
docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionConfigCableMCmtsDownIfIndex is 
provided in the row creation; see the object description 
for details) the corresponding entry in the following 
tables:
 ifTable, 
 docsIfDownstreamChannelTable, 
 docsIfMCmtsCoreDownstreamTable/
 docsIfMCmtsEqamDownstreamTable,
 docsIfMCmtsCoreDownstreamTable,
 docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionInfoTable, and
 docsIfMCmtsDepiSessionStatsTable
            
In the EQAM device this table is normally created by the
M-CMTS Core initiated DEPI session, although manual 
configuration may be supported, with the difference that 
EQAM devices are not required to initiate DEPI sessions. 
EQAM device Operation of configured entries is not 
detailed in this MIB module.
