This table is used to provide remote device monitoring facilities.
The implementation allows a list of network devices to be set up
and polled regularly (or only once) by a variety of protocols.
The table can be configured to inform the management station(s)
of devices that are not responding to polls or that have started
to respond after a period of silence.
The minimum effort required to do a single poll is
1. In one packet, write the address and set a3ComPollAction to
activate(2).
2. In the next packet, read the a3ComPollReport.
The minimum effort required to monitor a device is
1. In one packet, write the address, set a3ComPollAttempts to 1,
set a3ComPollCount to 0 and set a3ComPollAction to activate(2).
2. Wait for traps to come in.
A row in this table is created by setting any read-write member,
indexed by the next available index (a3ComPollNextFreeIndex). This
method of creation makes the table very user friendly, although
a bit harder to detect racing conditions. The suggested method for
racing condition detection is by checking the a3ComPollAddress and
a3ComPollOwner objects while the a3ComPollReport object is set to
active. An example of the indexing of this table is a3ComPollRate.2
