Thanks for your reply.
And I read 03 latest revision again.
I understood.
The draft provides two function.
-Provisioning: similar with IP TunnelMIB.
-Statics: count of each of CE traffic

As you mentions,I felt statics from CE is not so difficult.
But I have never seen similar implementation even though it is CLI.
Indeed,the statics which will be provide by this mib is NOT state of tunnel.
I would like to hear wg opinion.


I think it is not need "mapTunnelStatus",  because we can not find Status of 
each of CE.

BTW, this MIB not mentions relationship with NAT-MIB.
Especially MAP-E CE uses A+P technology,and latest nat mib defines A+P as new 
feature.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-behave-nat-mib

I'm not sure whether the draft should write relationship with NAT-MIB.
And NAT-MIB does not be directly effect to this draft.
But MAP-E CE is using A+P, so we should check it.
