An entry in the aluSourceMDAStatsTable contains ingress traffic stats from this MDA of mda-id being aluSourceMDASrcMdaId to be sent toward the Fabric Device which is to be forwarded toward MDA with mda-id being aluSourceMDADestMdaId. A special case of aluSourceMDADestMdaId being 0 indicates the entry describes multipoint traffic stats being sent, from MDA with aluSourceMDASrcMdaId, toward the Fabric Device. The Nokia 7705 SAR-M & SAR-ME devices cannot differentiate which source MDA the traffic stats come from. Therefore these devices provide the aggregated traffic from all the source MDA's in the system, to a particular MDA of aluSourceMDADestMdaId. Thus, any entries with a different, but valid aluSourceMDASrcMdaId, that have the same aluSourceMDADestMdaId would provide the same stats.
