OBJECT-TYPE

This object displays what types of intercept streams can be configured on this type of device. This may be dependent on hardware capabilities, software capabilities. The following fields may be supported: tapEnable: set if table entries with casa802tapStreamInterceptEnable set to 'false' are used to pre-screen packets for intercept; otherwise these entries are ignored. interface: SNMP ifIndex Value may be used to select interception of all data crossing an interface or set of interfaces. dstMacAddr: Destination MAC Address may be used to select traffic to be intercepted. srcMacAddr: Source MAC Address may be used to select traffic to be intercepted. ethernetPid: Ethernet Protocol Identifier may be used to select traffic to be intercepted. dstLlcSap: IEEE 802.2 Destination SAP may be used to select traffic to be intercepted. srcLlcSap: IEEE 802.2 Source SAP may be used to select traffic to be intercepted.

OBJECT-TYPE

The Intercept Stream 802 Table lists the IEEE 802 data streams to be intercepted. The same data stream may be required by multiple taps, and one might assume that often the intercepted stream is a small subset of the traffic that could be intercepted. This essentially provides options for packet selection, only some of which might be used. For example, if all traffic to or from a given interface is to be intercepted, one would configure an entry which lists the interface, and wild-card everything else. If all traffic to or from a given MAC Address is to be intercepted, one would configure two such entries listing the MAC Address as source and destination respectively, and wild-card everything else. The first index indicates which Mediation Device the intercepted traffic will be diverted to. The second index permits multiple classifiers to be used together, such as having a MAC address as source or destination. Entries are added to this table via c802tapStreamStatus in accordance with the RowStatus convention.

OBJECT-TYPE

A stream entry indicates a single data stream to be intercepted to a Mediation Device. Many selected data streams may go to the same application interface, and many application interfaces are supported.

OBJECT-TYPE

The index of the stream itself.

OBJECT-TYPE

This object displays what attributes must be tested to identify traffic which requires interception. The packet matches if all flagged fields match. interface: indicates that traffic on the stated interface is to be intercepted dstMacAddress: indicates that traffic destined to a given address should be intercepted srcMacAddress: indicates that traffic sourced from a given address should be intercepted ethernetPid: indicates that traffic with a stated Ethernet Protocol Identifier should be intercepted dstLlcSap: indicates that traffic with an certain 802.2 LLC Destination SAP should be intercepted srcLlcSap: indicates that traffic with an certain 802.2 LLC Source SAP should be intercepted At least one of the bits has to be set in order to activate an entry. If the bit is not on, the corresponding MIB object value has no effect, and need not be specified when creating the entry.

OBJECT-TYPE

The ifIndex value of the interface over which traffic to be intercepted is received or transmitted. The interface may be physical or virtual. If this is the only parameter specified, and it is other than -1 or 0, all traffic on the selected interface will be chosen. If the value is zero, matching traffic may be received or transmitted on any interface. Additional selection parameters must be selected to limit the scope of traffic intercepted. This is most useful on non-routing platforms or on intercepts placed elsewhere than a subscriber interface. If the value is -1, one or both of casa802tapStreamDestinationAddress and casa802tapStreamSourceAddress must be specified. Matching traffic on the interface pointed to by the dot1dTpFdbPort values associated with those values is intercepted, whichever is specified. If dot1dTpFdbPort changes, either by operator action or by protocol events, the interface will change with it. This is primarily intended for use on subscriber interfaces and other places where routing is guaranteed to be symmetrical. In both of these cases, it is possible to have the same packet selected for intersection on both its ingress and egress interface. Nonetheless, only one instance of the packet is sent to the Mediation Device. This value must be set when creating a stream entry, either to select an interface, to select all interfaces, or to select the interface that bridging learns. Some platforms may not implement the entire range of options.

OBJECT-TYPE

The Destination address used in packet selection.

OBJECT-TYPE

The Source Address used in packet selection.

OBJECT-TYPE

The value of the Ethernet Protocol Identifier, which may be found on Ethernet traffic or IEEE 802.2 SNAP traffic.

OBJECT-TYPE

The value of the IEEE 802.2 Destination SAP.

OBJECT-TYPE

The value of the IEEE 802.2 Source SAP.

OBJECT-TYPE

When the value is up, this table is valid, otherwise this table is invalid.

OBJECT-TYPE

The status of this conceptual row. This object manages creation, modification, and deletion of rows in this table. When any rows must be changed, casa802tapStreamStatus must be first set to 'notInService'.
