jnxPppMlPppNextLinkIfIndex – JNX-PPP-MIB

Object

scalar IF-MIBInterfaceIndexOrZero

Coordinate ifIndex value allocation for entries in
jnxPppMlPppLinkConfigTable. A GET of this object returns the next
available ifIndex value to be used to create an entry in the
associated interface table; or zero, if no valid ifIndex value is
available. This object also returns a value of zero when it is the
lexicographic successor of a varbind presented in an SNMP GETNEXT
or GETBULK request, for which circumstance it is assumed that ifIndex
allocation is unintended. Successive GETs will typically return
different values, thus avoiding collisions among cooperating management
clients seeking to create table entries simultaneously.

Syntax

IF-MIBInterfaceIndexOrZero

Source: IF-MIBInterfaceIndexOrZero
Base type: Integer32
Display format: d

Type Description

This textual convention is an extension of the
InterfaceIndex convention.  The latter defines a greater
than zero value used to identify an interface or interface
sub-layer in the managed system.  This extension permits the
additional value of zero.  the value zero is object-specific
and must therefore be defined as part of the description of
any object which uses this syntax.  Examples of the usage of
zero might include situations where interface was unknown,
or when none or all interfaces need to be referenced.
