1.  Introduction

   This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
   for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
   In particular, it describes objects used for managing ATM-based
   interfaces, devices, networks and services.

   This memo specifies a MIB module in a manner that is both compliant
   to the SNMPv2 SMI, and semantically identical to the peer SNMPv1
   definitions.

2.  The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework

   The SNMPv2 Network Management Framework consists of four major
   components.  They are:

      0    RFC 1442 [1] which defines the SMI, the mechanisms used
           for describing and naming objects for the purpose of
           management.

      0    STD 17, RFC 1213 [2] defines MIB-II, the core set of
           managed objects for the Internet suite of protocols.

      0    RFC 1445 [3] which defines the administrative and other
           architectural aspects of the framework.

      0    RFC 1448 [4] which defines the protocol used for network
           access to managed objects.

   The Framework permits new objects to be defined for the purpose of
   experimentation and evaluation.

3.  Object Definitions

   Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed
   the Management Information Base or MIB.  Objects in the MIB are
   defined using the subset of Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)
   defined in the SMI.  In particular, each object type is named by an
   OBJECT IDENTIFIER, an administratively assigned name.  The object
   type together with an object instance serves to uniquely identify a
   specific instantiation of the object.  For human convenience, we

Ahmed & Tesink                                                  [Page 2]



RFC 1695                 ATM Management Objects              August 1994

   often use a textual string, termed the descriptor, to also refer to
   the object type.

4.  ATM Terminology

   Some basic ATM terminologies are described in this section to
   facilitate defining the ATM managed objects.

4.1.  VCL/VPL and VCC/VPC

   There are two distinct types of ATM virtual connections: Virtual
   Channel Connections (VCCs) and Virtual Path Connection (VPCs).  As
   shown in Figures 1 and 2, ATM virtual connections consist of
   concatenated series of virtual links which forms a path between two
   end points, with each concatenation occurring at an ATM switch.
   Virtual links of VCCs are called Virtual Channel Links (VCLs).
   Virtual links of VPCs are called Virtual Path Links (VPLs). The VCI
   and VPI fields in the ATM cell header associate each cell of a VCC
   with a particular VCL over a given physical link.  The VPI field in
   the ATM cell header associates each cell of a VPC with a particular
   VPL over a given physical link.  Switches route cells between VCLs
   (or VPLs) via a cross-connect function according to the cells'
   VCI/VPI (or VPI) values.

            Figure 2: Virtual Path Links and
                      Virtual Path Connection

   A single ATM end-system or switch does not support the whole end-to-
   end span of a VCC (or VPC).  Rather, multiple ATM end- systems and/or
   switches each support one piece of the VCC (or VPC).   That is, each
   ATM end-system at one end of the VCC/VPC supports its end of the
   VCC/VPC  plus the VCLs or VPLs on its external interfaces, and each
   switch through which the VCC/VPC passes, supports the multiple
   VCLs/VPLs on that switch's external interfaces and the cross-
   connection of those VCLs/VPLs through that switch.  Thus, the end-
   to-end management of a VCC or VPC is achieved only by appropriate
   management of its individual pieces in combination.

   Note that for management purposes, an ATM network may be viewed as a
   large distributed switch by hiding all the network's internal
   connectivity as being internal to the distributed switch (as shown in
   Figure 2a).  This model may for example be used for Customer Network
   Management (CNM) purposes.

   A VCC has a set of traffic characteristics (i.e., bandwidth
   parameters, QoS Class parameters, etc.).  VCLs inherit their traffic
   characteristics from the VCC of which they are a part.  VCCs are bi-
   directional by definition.  However, the traffic parameters in the
   two directions of a connection can be symmetric or asymmetric, i.e.,
   the two directions can have the same or different traffic flows.  A
   uni-directional traffic flow across a VCC is achieved by assigning a
   zero bandwidth in one direction.  Note that in addition to the
   bandwidth required by the user traffic flow, bandwidth is also
   required for OAM cell flows, even for the zero-bandwidth direction of
   a uni-directional connection.  These same principles apply to VPCs.

4.2.  PVC and SVC

   A Permanent Virtual Connection (PVC) is a provisioned VCC or VPC.  A
   Switched Virtual Connection (SVC) is a switched VCC or VPC that is
   set up in real-time via call set-up signaling procedures.  A PVC (or
   an SVC) can be a point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, or multipoint-
   to-multipoint VCC or VPC.

4.3.  Traffic Management Parameters

4.3.1.  Traffic Policing and Traffic Shaping Parameters

   In order to allocate resources fairly among different users, some
   networks police traffic at resource access points.  The traffic
   enforcement or policing taken at a UNI is called Usage Parameter
   Control (UPC) and is activated on an incoming VCL or VPL as shown in
   Figure 3.  The use of the traffic enforcer at the ingress of the
   connection is to make sure that the user traffic does not exceed the

Ahmed & Tesink                                                  [Page 5]



RFC 1695                 ATM Management Objects              August 1994

   negotiated traffic parameters such as the peak cell rate associated
   with a specific traffic descriptor type.

                     ----------             ----------
              UNI    |  ATM   |    NNI      |  ATM   |     UNI
               |     | switch |     |       | switch |      |
          O<---|---->X(UPC)   |<----|------>|   (UPC)X<-----|--->O
               | VCL |        |     | VCL   |        |  VCL |
                     ----------             ----------

                         Figure 3: An Example of a UPC

   In addition, traffic shaping may be performed on an outgoing VPL or
   VCL at a given ATM interface.  The function of the ATM traffic shaper
   either at the source or an egress point of the connection is to
   smooth the outgoing cell traffic inter-arrival time.  If policing or
   shaping is not performed then the policing or shaping algorithm is
   not activated.  ATM Forum has specified seven traffic descriptor
   types including one for the best effort traffic [9].

4.3.2.  Cell Loss Priority

   To prioritize traffic during resource congestion, ATM cells are
   assigned one of the two types of Cell Loss Priority (CLP), CLP=0 and
   CLP=1.  ATM cells with CLP=0 have a higher priority in regard to cell
   loss than ATM cells with CLP=1.  Therefore, during resource
   congestions, CLP=1 cells are dropped before any CLP=0 cell is
   dropped.

4.3.3.  QoS Class

   A VCC or VPC is associated with one of a number of Quality of Service
   (QoS) classes.  The following service classes have been specified:

      Service Class A: Constant bit rate video and Circuit
                       emulation
      Service Class B: Variable bit rate video/audio
      Service Class C: Connection-oriented data
      Service Class D: Connectionless data

   Four QoS classes numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4 have been specified with the
   aim of supporting service classes A, B, C, and D respectively.  The
   VCLs (or VPLs) concatenated to form a VCC (or VPC) will all have the
   same QoS class as that of the VCC (or VPC).  The Cell Loss Ratio
   (CLR), Cell Delay Variation (CDV), and end-to-end Cell Delay (CD)
   parameters are defined as part of QoS Class definition.  In addition,

Ahmed & Tesink                                                  [Page 6]



RFC 1695                 ATM Management Objects              August 1994

   an unspecified QoS Class numbered 0 is specified for best effort
   traffic.

5.  Overview

   ATM management objects are used to manage ATM interfaces, ATM virtual
   links,  ATM cross-connects, AAL5 entities and AAL5 connections
   supported by ATM hosts, ATM switches and ATM networks.  This section
   provides an overview and background of how to use this MIB and other
   potential MIBs for this purpose.

   The purpose of this memo is primarily to manage ATM PVCs.  ATM SVCs
   are also represented by the management information in this MIB.
   However, full management of SVCs may require additional capabilities
   which are beyond the scope of this memo.

5.1.  Background

   In addition to the MIB module defined in this memo, other MIB modules
   are necessary to manage ATM interfaces, links and cross-connects.
   Examples include MIB II for general system and interface management
   (RFC 1213 and RFC 1573), the DS3 or SONET MIBs for management of
   physical interfaces, and, as appropriate, MIB modules for
   applications that make use of ATM, such as SMDS.  These MIB modules
   are outside the scope of this specification.

   The current specification of this ATM MIB is based on SNMPv2.

5.2.  Structure of the MIB

   The managed ATM objects are arranged into the following groups:

                (1) ATM interface configuration group
                (2) ATM interface DS3 PLCP group
                (3) ATM interface TC Sublayer group
                (4) ATM interface virtual link (VPL/VCL) configuration
                    groups
                (5) ATM VP/VC cross-connect groups
                (6) AAL5 connection performance statistics group

   Note that, managed objects for activation/deactivation of OAM cell
   flows and ATM traps notifying virtual connection or virtual link
   failures are outside the scope of this memo.

5.3.  ATM Interface Configuration Group

   This group contains information on ATM cell layer configuration of
   local ATM interfaces on an ATM device in addition to the information

Ahmed & Tesink                                                  [Page 7]



RFC 1695                 ATM Management Objects              August 1994

   on such interfaces contained in the ifTable.

5.4.  ATM Interface DS3 PLCP and TC Layer Groups

   These groups provide performance statistics of the DS3 PLCP and TC
   sublayer of local ATM interfaces on a managed ATM device.  DS3 PLCP
   and TC sublayer are currently used to carry ATM cells respectively
   over DS3 and SONET transmission paths.

5.5.  ATM Virtual Link and Cross-Connect Groups

   ATM virtual link and cross-connect groups model bi-directional ATM
   virtual links and ATM cross-connects.  The ATM VP/VC link groups are
   implemented in an ATM host, ATM switch and ATM network.  The ATM
   switch and ATM network also implement the ATM VP/VC cross-connect
   groups.  Both link and cross-connect groups are implemented in a
   carrier's network for Customer Network Management (CNM) purposes.

   The ATM virtual link groups are used to create, delete or modify ATM
   virtual links in an ATM host, ATM switch and ATM network.  ATM
   virtual link groups along with the cross-connect groups are used to
   create, delete or modify ATM cross-connects in an ATM switch or ATM
   network (e.g., for CNM purposes).

6.  Application of MIB II to ATM

6.1.  The System Group

   For the purposes of the sysServices object in the System Group of MIB
   II [2], ATM is a data link layer protocol.  Thus, for ATM switches
   and ATM networks, sysServices will have the value "2".

6.2.  The Interface Group

   The Interfaces Group of MIB II defines generic managed objects for
   managing interfaces.  This memo contains the media-specific
   extensions to the Interfaces Group for managing ATM interfaces.

   This memo assumes the interpretation of the Interfaces Group to be in
   accordance with [5] which states that the interfaces table (ifTable)
   contains information on the managed resource's interfaces and that
   each sub-layer below the internetwork layer of a network interface is
   considered an interface.  Thus, the ATM cell layer interface is
   represented as an entry in the ifTable.  This entry is concerned with
   the ATM cell layer as a whole, and not with individual virtual
   connections which are managed via the ATM-specific managed objects
   specified in this memo.  The inter-relation of entries in the ifTable
   is defined by Interfaces Stack Group defined in [5].

6.2.1.  Support of the ATM Cell Layer by ifTable

   Some specific interpretations of ifTable for the ATM cell layer
   follow.

          Object     Use for the generic ATM layer
          ======     =============================

          ifIndex    Each ATM port is represented by an ifEntry.

          ifDescr    Description of the ATM interface.

          ifType     The value that is allocated for ATM is 37.

          ifSpeed    The total bandwidth in bits per second
                     for use by the ATM layer.

          ifPhysAddress  The interface's address at the ATM protocol
                     sublayer; the ATM address which would be used
                     as the value of the Called Party Address
                     Information Element (IE) of a signalling
                     message for a connection which either:
                     - would terminate at this interface, or
                     - for which the Called Party Address IE
                       would need to be replaced by the Called
                       Party SubAddress IE before the message
                       was forwarded to any other interface.
                     For an interface on which signalling is
                     not supported, then the interface does not
                     necessarily have an address, but if it
                     does, then ifPhysAddress is the address which
                     would be used as above in the event that
                     signalling were supported.  If the interface
                     has multiple such addresses, then ifPhysAddress
                     is its primary address. If the interface has
                     no addresses, then ifPhysAddress is an octet
                     string of zero length.  Address encoding is as
                     per [9].  Note that addresses assigned for
                     purposes other than those listed above (e.g.,
                     an address associated with the service provider
                     side of a public network UNI) may be represented
                     through atmInterfaceAdminAddress.

          ifAdminStatus  See [5].

          ifOperStatus   Assumes the value down(2) if the ATM cell

8.1.  Managing AAL5 in a Switch

   Managing AAL5 in a switch involves:

      (1) performance management of an AAL5 entity as
          an internal resource in a switch

      (2) performance management of AAL5 per virtual connection

   AAL5 in a switch is modeled as shown in Figures 4 and 5.  AAL5 will
   be managed in a switch for only those virtual connections that carry
   AAL5 and are terminated at the AAL5 entity in the switch.  Note that,
   the virtual channels within the ATM UNIs carrying AAL5 will be
   switched by the ATM switching fabric (termed as ATM Entity in the
   figure) to the virtual channels on a proprietary internal interface
   associated with the AAL5 process (termed as AAL5 Entity in the
   figure). Therefore, performance management of the AAL5 resource in
   the switch will be modeled using the ifTable through an internal
   (pseudo-ATM) virtual interface and the AAL5 performance management
   per virtual connection will be supported using an additional AAL5
   connection table in the ATM MIB.  The association between the AAL5
   virtual link at the proprietary virtual, internal interface and the
   ATM virtual link at the ATM interface will be derived from the
   virtual channel cross-connect table and the virtual channel link
   table in the ATM MIB.

8.2.  Managing AAL5 in a Host

   Managing AAL5 in a host involves managing the AAL5 sublayer interface
   as shown in Figures 6 and 7.  The AAL5 sublayer is stacked directly
   over the ATM sublayer.  The ifTable is applied to the AAL5 sublayer
   as defined in Section 8.3.

8.3.  Support of AAL5 by ifTable

   The AAL5 entity in an ATM device (e.g., switch or host) is managed
   using the ifTable.  There are additional counters specified for AAL5
   than those specified in the ATM B-ICI document [10].  Specific
   interpretations of ifTable for the AAL5 CPCS layer are as follows.

          ifOutUcastPkts  The number of AAL5 CPCS PDUs received from a
                   higher-layer for transmission.
                   [Note:  The number of AAL5 PDUs actually
                   transmitted is the number received from a
                   higher-layer for transmission minus any which
                   are counted by ifOutErrors and ifOutDiscards.]

   Specific interpretations of ifTable for the proprietary virtual,
   internal interface associated with an AAL5 entity in an ATM switch
   are as follows.

8.5.  AAL5 Connection Performance Statistics Group

   An AAL5 connection table is used to provide AAL5 performance
   information for each AAL5 virtual connection that is terminated at
   the AAL5 entity contained within an ATM switch or host.

9.  ILMI MIB and the ATM Managed Objects

   The ILMI MIB is specified by the ATM Forum in UNI specification [9],
   to manage local ATM UNIs.  The support of the ATM management
   functions by the ILMI MIB and those contained in this memo are
   compared in Table 1.  In this table, "yes" in the "ILMI MIB"  column
   indicates that the management functions are supported by the ILMI
   MIB.  The MIB groups in the "This memo" column are the groups listed
   in Section 5.2.

   For that subset of management information which the ILMI MIB and this
   memo have in common, every effort has been made to retain identical
   semantics and syntax, even though the MIB objects are identified

                        by setting atmVplRowStatus to createAndWait(5).
                        This may fail for the following reasons:
                        - The selected VPI value is unavailable,
                        - The selected VPI value is in use.
                        Otherwise, the agent creates a row and
                        reserves the VPI value on that port.

                    (2) The manager selects an existing row(s) in the
                        atmTrafficDescrParamTable,
                        thereby, selecting a set of self-consistent
                        ATM traffic parameters and the QoS Class
                        for receive and transmit directions of the VPL.

                   (2a) If no suitable row(s) in the
                        atmTrafficDescrParamTable exists,
                        the manager must create a new row(s)
                        in that table.

                   (2b) The manager characterizes the VPL's traffic
                        parameters through setting the
                        atmVplReceiveTrafficDescrIndex and the
                        atmVplTransmitTrafficDescrIndex values
                        in the VPL table, which point to the rows
                        containing desired ATM traffic parameter values
                        in the atmTrafficDescrParamTable.  The agent
                        will check the availability of resources and
                        may refuse the request.

                    (3) The manager activates the VPL by setting the
                        the atmVplRowStatus to active(1).
                        If this set is successful, the agent has
                        reserved the resources to satisfy the requested
                        traffic parameter values and the QoS Class
                        for that VPL.
                    (4) If the VPL terminates a VPC in the ATM host
                        or switch, the manager turns on the
                        atmVplAdminStatus to up(1) to turn the VPL
                        traffic flow on.  Otherwise, the
                        atmVpCrossConnectTable  must be used
                        to cross-connect the VPL to another VPL(s)
                        in an ATM switch or network.

RFC 1695                 ATM Management Objects              August 1994

                      A VPL may also be established in one step by a
                      set-request with all necessary VPL parameter
                      values and atmVplRowStatus set to createAndGo(4).

                      In contrast to the negotiated VPL establishment
                      which allows for detailed error checking
                      (i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to
                      particular resource acquisition failures),
                      the one-shot VPL establishment
                      performs the setup on one operation but
                      does not have the advantage of step-wise
                      error checking.

                      VPL Retirement

                      A VPL is released by setting atmVplRowStatus to
                      destroy(6), and the agent may release all
                      associated resources."

                        by setting atmVclRowStatus to createAndWait(5).
                        This may fail for the following reasons:
                        - The selected VPI/VCI values are unavailable,
                        - The selected VPI/VCI values are in use.
                        Otherwise, the agent creates a row and
                        reserves the VPI/VCI values on that port.

                    (2) The manager selects an existing row(s) in the
                        atmTrafficDescrParamTable,
                        thereby, selecting a set of self-consistent

                        for receive and transmit directions of the VCL.

                        the manager must create a new row(s)
                        in that table.

                   (2b) The manager characterizes the VCL's traffic
                        parameters through setting the

                        in the VCL table, which point to the rows
                        containing desired ATM traffic parameter values
                        in the atmTrafficDescrParamTable.  The agent
                        will check the availability of resources and
                        may refuse the request.

                    (3) The manager activates the VCL by setting the
                        the atmVclRowStatus to active(1).
                        If this set is successful, the agent has

                        traffic parameter values and the QoS Class
                        for that VCL.
                    (4) If the VCL terminates a VCC in the ATM host
                        or switch, the manager turns on the
                        atmVclAdminStatus to up(1) to turn the VCL
                        traffic flow on.  Otherwise, the
                        atmVcCrossConnectTable  must be used
                        to cross-connect the VCL to another VCL(s)
                        in an ATM switch or network.

                     One-Shot VCL Establishment

                     A VCL may also be established in one step by a
                     set-request with all necessary VCL parameter
                     values and atmVclRowStatus set to createAndGo(4).

                     In contrast to the negotiated VCL establishment
                     which allows for detailed error checking
                     (i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to
                     particular resource acquisition failures),
                     the one-shot VCL establishment
                     performs the setup on one operation but
                     does not have the advantage of step-wise
                     error checking.

                     VCL Retirement

                     A VCL is released by setting atmVclRowStatus to
                     destroy(6), and the agent may release all
                     associated resources."

                     (1) The manager obtains a unique
                         atmVpCrossConnectIndex by reading the
                         atmVpCrossConnectIndexNext object.

                     (2) Next, the manager creates a set of one
                         or more rows in the ATM VP Cross Connect
                         Table, one for each cross-connection between
                         two VPLs.  Each row is indexed by the ATM
                         interface port numbers and VPI values of the
                         two ends of that cross-connection.
                         This set of rows specifies the topology of the
                         VPC cross-connect and is identified by a single
                         value of atmVpCrossConnectIndex.

                      Negotiated VP Cross-Connect Establishment

                    (2a) The manager creates a row in this table by
                         setting atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus to
                         createAndWait(5).  The agent checks the
                         requested topology and the mutual sanity of
                         the ATM traffic parameters and
                         QoS Classes, i.e., the row creation fails if:
                         - the requested topology is not supported
                           by the agent,
                         - the traffic/QoS parameter values
                           associated with the requested row are
                           incompatible with those of already existing
                           rows for this VP cross-connect.
                         [For example, for setting up
                         a point-to-point VP cross-connect, the
                         ATM traffic parameters in the receive direction
                         of a VPL at the low end of the cross-connect
                         must equal to the traffic parameters in the
                         transmit direction of the other VPL at the
                         high end of the cross-connect,
                         otherwise, the row creation fails.]
                         The agent also checks for internal errors
                         in building the cross-connect.

                         The atmVpCrossConnectIndex values in the
                         corresponding atmVplTable rows are filled
                         in by the agent at this point.

                    (2b) The manager promotes the row in the
                         atmVpCrossConnectTable by setting
                         atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus to active(1).  If
                         this set is successful, the agent has reserved
                         the resources specified by the ATM traffic

                         parameter and QoS Class values
                         for each direction of the VP cross-connect
                         in an ATM switch or network.

                     (3) The manager sets the
                         atmVpCrossConnectAdminStatus to up(1) in all
                         rows of this VP cross-connect to turn the
                         traffic flow on.

                      One-Shot VP Cross-Connect Establishment

                      A VP cross-connect may also be established in
                      one step by a set-request with all necessary
                      parameter values and atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus
                      set to createAndGo(4).

                      In contrast to the negotiated VP cross-connect
                      establishment which allows for detailed error
                      checking (i.e., set errors are explicitly linked
                      to particular resource acquisition failures),
                      the one-shot VP cross-connect establishment
                      performs the setup on one operation but does not
                      have the advantage of step-wise error checking.

                      VP Cross-Connect Retirement

                      A VP cross-connect identified by a particular
                      value of atmVpCrossConnectIndex is released by:

                     (1) Setting atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus of all
                         rows identified by this value of
                         atmVpCrossConnectIndex to destroy(6).
                         The agent may release all
                         associated resources, and the
                         atmVpCrossConnectIndex values in the
                         corresponding atmVplTable row are removed.
                         Note that a situation when only a subset of
                         the associated rows are deleted corresponds
                         to a VP topology change.

                     (2) After deletion of the appropriate
                         atmVpCrossConnectEntries, the manager may
                         set atmVplRowStatus to destroy(6) the
                         associated VPLs.  The agent releases
                         the resources and removes the associated
                         rows in the atmVplTable.

                      Step-wise Procedures to set up a VC Cross-connect

                      Once the entries in the atmVclTable are created,
                      the following procedures are used
                      to cross-connect the VCLs together to
                      form a VCC segment.

                     (1) The manager obtains a unique
                         atmVcCrossConnectIndex by reading the
                         atmVcCrossConnectIndexNext object.

                     (2) Next, the manager creates a set of one
                         or more rows in the ATM VC Cross Connect
                         Table, one for each cross-connection between
                         two VCLs.  Each row is indexed by the ATM
                         interface port numbers and VPI/VCI values of
                         the two ends of that cross-connection.
                         This set of rows specifies the topology of the
                         VCC cross-connect and is identified by a single
                         value of atmVcCrossConnectIndex.

                      Negotiated VC Cross-Connect Establishment

                    (2a) The manager creates a row in this table by
                         setting atmVcCrossConnectRowStatus to
                         createAndWait(5).  The agent checks the
                         requested topology and the mutual sanity of

                         - the requested topology is not supported
                           by the agent,
                         - the traffic/QoS parameter values
                           associated with the requested row are
                           incompatible with those of already existing
                           rows for this VC cross-connect.
                         [For example, for setting up
                         a point-to-point VC cross-connect, the

                         of a VCL at the low end of the cross-connect
                         must equal to the traffic parameters in the
                         transmit direction of the other VCL at the
                         high end of the cross-connect,
                         otherwise, the row creation fails.]
                         The agent also checks for internal errors
                         in building the cross-connect.

                         The atmVcCrossConnectIndex values in the
                         corresponding atmVclTable rows are filled
                         in by the agent at this point.

                    (2b) The manager promotes the row in the
                         atmVcCrossConnectTable by setting
                         atmVcCrossConnectRowStatus to active(1).  If
                         this set is successful, the agent has reserved
                         the resources specified by the ATM traffic
                         parameter and QoS Class values
                         for each direction of the VC cross-connect
                         in an ATM switch or network.

                     (3) The manager sets the
                         atmVcCrossConnectAdminStatus to up(1)
                         in all rows of this VC cross-connect to
                         turn the traffic flow on.

                      One-Shot VC Cross-Connect Establishment

                      A VC cross-connect may also be established in
                      one step by a set-request with all necessary
                      parameter values and atmVcCrossConnectRowStatus
                      set to createAndGo(4).

                         to a VC topology change.

                     (2) After deletion of the appropriate
                         atmVcCrossConnectEntries, the manager may
                         set atmVclRowStatus to destroy(6) the
                         associated VCLs.  The agent releases
                         the resources and removes the associated
                         rows in the atmVclTable.

                      VC Cross-Connect Reconfiguration

                      At the discretion of the agent, a VC
                      cross-connect may be reconfigured by
                      adding and/or deleting leafs to/from
                      the VC topology as per the VC cross-connect
                      establishment/retirement procedures.
                      Reconfiguration of traffic/QoS parameter
                      values requires release of the VC cross-connect
                      before those parameter values may by changed
                      for individual VCLs."
