| Description | A value that indicates the connection policies
enforced at the station. A station sets the
corresponding policy for each of the connection
types that it rejects. The letter designations, X
and Y, in the 'rejectX-Y' names have the following
significance: X represents the PC-Type of the
local PORT and Y represents a PC-Neighbor in the
evaluation of Connection-Policy (PC-Type, PC-
Neighbor) that is done to determine the setting of
T-Val(3) in the PC-Signaling sequence (refer to
ANSI Section 9.6.3).
The value is a sum. This value initially takes
the value zero, then for each of the connection
policies currently enforced on the node, 2 raised
to a power is added to the sum. The powers are
according to the following table:
Policy Power
rejectA-A 0
rejectA-B 1
rejectA-S 2
rejectA-M 3
rejectB-A 4
rejectB-B 5
rejectB-S 6
rejectB-M 7
rejectS-A 8
rejectS-B 9
rejectS-S 10
rejectS-M 11
rejectM-A 12
rejectM-B 13
rejectM-S 14
rejectM-M 15
Implementors should note that the polarity of
these bits is different in different places in an
SMT system. Implementors should take appropriate
care. |
