2.9.2 CEX Configuration Sets
A CEX Configuration Set provides a mechanism for assigning up to 20 unique CEX Parameters and up to 20 unique supported Vendor IDs to a Local Node or Connection. A default CEX Configuration Set named Default is pre-populated with CEX Parameters for the RELAY Application ID (0xFFFFFFFF).
You can perform these tasks on an Active System OAM (SOAM).
Each Local Node refers to a single CEX Configuration Set. The CEX Configuration Set is mandatory for Local Node. Each transport connection can optionally refer to a single CEX Configuration Set. During CEX message exchange, the CEX Configuration Set in the transport connection is used if configured. Otherwise, the CEX Configuration Set in the Local Node (associated with the transport connection) is used. A Vendor ID can be sent in the Supported-Vendor-ID AVP of a CEX even though the Vendor ID is not configured in the Selected Supported Vendor IDs for the CEX Configuration Set.
The application has a default CEX Configuration Set called Default, which is always available. The Default CEX Configuration Set options cannot be modified or deleted. When you create a new CEX Configuration Set the values of the Default CEX Configuration Set are automatically populated into the new CEX Configuration Set, allowing you to easily create a new CEX Configuration Set that needs to have only a few options adjusted.
