Object

column r/w ObjectIdentifier
This object identifies the source of the data for
this instance of the host function.  This source
can be any interface on this device.  In order
to identify a particular interface, this object shall
identify the instance of the ifIndex object, defined
in RFC 2233 [17], for the desired interface.
For example, if an entry were to receive data from
interface #1, this object would be set to ifIndex.1.
              
The statistics in this group reflect all packets
on the local network segment attached to the identified
interface.
              
An agent may or may not be able to tell if fundamental
changes to the media of the interface have occurred and
necessitate an invalidation of this entry.  For example, a
hot-pluggable ethernet card could be pulled out and replaced
by a token-ring card.  In such a case, if the agent has such
knowledge of the change, it is recommended that it
invalidate this entry.
              
This object may not be modified if the associated
hostControlStatus object is equal to valid(1).
