Reserved parameter IDs

The DataMiner software reserves a parameter ID range for internal parameters. These parameter IDs cannot be used for user-defined parameters.

The following table gives an overview of the available parameter IDs that can be used by a protocol.

Range Owner Minimum DMA version Allowed
[1, 63 999] Protocol 1.0.0 Yes*
[64 000, 64 299] DataMiner/Protocol 1.0.0 Yes*
[64 300, 69 999] DataMiner 1.0.0 No
[70 000, 79 999] Protocol 7.5.6 Yes*
[80 000, 99 999] DataMiner/Protocol 9.0.4 (RN 13161) Yes*
[100 000, 999 999] DataMiner 9.0.4 (RN 13161) No
[1 000 000, 9 989 999] Protocol 9.0.4 (RN 13161) Yes*
[9 990 000 - 9 999 999] DataMiner/Protocol 9.0.4 (RN 13161) No
[10 000 000, 10 999 999] DataMiner (Data API) 10.4.0/10.4.1 (RN 37837) Yes*

* See below for more restrictions that might be applicable.

[1, 63 999]

In general, the range [1, 63 999] can be used in a protocol for parameters. However, for some specific types of protocols, additional restrictions apply:

Protocol type Restricted range Owner Description
Aggregation [1-4 999] DataMiner Parameters in this range are used for communication between DataMiner and aggregation drivers.
Enhanced Service [1, 999] DataMiner This range must only be used to communicate with DataMiner via predefined parameters.
SLA [1, 2 999] DataMiner Parameters in this range are used for communication between DataMiner and SLA drivers.
Spectrum Analyzer [50 000, 60 000] DataMiner This range is used by the SLSpectrum process to create dynamic parameters for spectrum monitoring results.

[64 000, 64 299]

Only to be used for communication with DataMiner modules. This range contains parameters that can be implemented in protocols to communicate with DataMiner (e.g. enhanced service drivers, spectrum analyzer drivers, ticketing drivers, etc.). A registry of assigned parameters is maintained. Only these specific parameter IDs can be implemented in the protocol.

[64 300, 69 999]

Important

This parameter range cannot be used for user-defined parameters.

[70 000, 79 999]

Only to be used in mediation/base protocols.

Note

Minimum DataMiner version: 7.5.6

[80 000, 99 999]

Only to be used for communication with DataMiner modules. This range contains parameters that can be implemented in protocols to communicate with DataMiner (e.g. enhanced service drivers, spectrum analyzer drivers, ticketing drivers, etc.). A registry of assigned parameters is maintained. Only these specific parameter IDs can be implemented in the protocol.

Note

Minimum DataMiner version: 9.0.4 (RN 13161)

[100 000, 999 999]

Important

This parameter range cannot be used for user-defined parameters.

[1 000 000, 9 989 999]

Must only be used in case all parameters in the range [1, 63 999] are already in use.

Note

Minimum DataMiner version: 9.0.4 (RN 13161)

[9 990 000 - 9 999 999]

Parameters in this range are reserved for Flow Engineering (FLE) to track the as-is path of a flow.

See Support FLE in connectors for more information.

[10 000 000, 10 999 999]

Only to be used by Data API (introduced in DataMiner 10.4.0/10.4.1) to generate parameters.
