Object

column mandatory OctetString
An arbitrary string that uniquely identifies the
Physical Element and serves as the Element's key. The Tag
property can contain information such as asset tag or serial
number data. The key for PhysicalElement is placed very high in
the object hierarchy in order to independently identify the
hardware/entity, regardless of physical placement in or on
Cabinets, Adapters, etc. For example, a hotswappable or
removeable component may be taken from its containing
(scoping) Package and be temporarily unused. The object
still continues to exist - and may even be inserted into a
different scoping container. Therefore, the key for
Physical Element is an arbitrary string and is defined
independently of any placement or location-oriented
hierarchy.
