Hej,
 
pcepSessState and pcePcepSessStateLastChange are objects not values. The 
Notification does not copy values from storage and pass them - to do that the 
Notification would need to define new objects in a new table, etc. 
 
But the definition is 
   pcePcepSessUp NOTIFICATION-TYPE
       OBJECTS     {
                      pcePcepSessState,
                      pcePcepSessStateLastChange
                   }
 
So go and look up the meaning of the "OBJECTS" clause (maybe the whole 
definition of the "NOTIFICATION-TYPE" macro) in RFC 2578 or a good book on SMI. 
This will show you that the Notification emits the objects and they are, of 
course, parameterised so that you can determine to which table entry they apply.

hi Adrian,
   Could you please clarify it bit more. Does this mean that we pass pointer to 
{pcepSessState, pcePcepSessStateLastChange} in pcePcepSessEntry table (maybe 
via OID-ref)
rather than actual {session-state, timestamp} value for this notification.




Regards
Anush

Hey Sowmya,
 
I think you may misunderstand the nature of SNMP notifications. The objects 
they contain are not abstract fields, they are objects in entries in tables. 
Thus, the notification is supplying specific fields in specific entries in the 
tables, and so automatically indicate the context.
 
Cheers,
Adrian

Subject: [Pce] Query regarding RFC7420
 
Hi,
 
This query is regarding the current PCEP standard MIB.
In the current MIB implementation, neither pcePcepPeerAddr nor 
pcePcepEntityIndex is part of the standard notification object.
 
With this implementation, how do we indicate active and standby PCEP sessions 
in the notifications or in other words how to uniquely identify the PCEP 
session that sends the notification?
 
We would like to propose a modification to the existing draft to include the 
unique session identifier as part of the notification object.
Please let me know your thoughts.
 
Thanks,
Sowmya
