| Description | This object contains an appropriate value to be used
for mplsTunnelHopListIndex when creating entries in
the mplsTunnelHopTable. If the number of unassigned
entries is exhausted, a retrival operation will
return a value of 0. This object may also return a
value of 0 when the LSR is unable to accept
conceptual row creation, for example, if the
mplsTunnelHopTable is implemented as read-only. To
obtain the value of mplsTunnelHopListIndex for a new
entry in the mplsTunnelHopTable, the manager issues
a management protocol retrieval operation to obtain
the current value of mplsTunnelHopIndex. After each
retrieval operation, the agent should modify the
value to reflect the next unassigned index. After a
manager retrieves a value the agent will determine
through its local policy when this index value will
be made available for reuse. |
