3.2.6.3.2. atTable Object Type Names

3.2.6.3.2. atTable Object Type Names

The name of an AT-cached network address, x, is an OBJECT IDENTIFIER of the form 1.a.b.c.d, where a.b.c.d is the value (in the familiar "dot" notation) of the atNetAddress object type associated with x.

The name of an address translation equivalence e is an OBJECT IDENTIFIER value of the form s.w, such that s is the value of that instance of the atIndex object type associated with e and such that w is the name of the AT-cached network address associated with e. For each object type, t, for which the defined name, n, has a prefix of atEntry, an instance, i, of t is named by an OBJECT IDENTIFIER of the form n.y, where y is the name of the address translation equivalence about which i represents information.

For example, suppose one wanted to find the physical address of an entry in the address translation table (ARP cache) associated with an IP address of 89.1.1.42 and interface 3. Accordingly, atPhysAddress.3.1.89.1.1.42 would identify the desired instance.
