| Description | The number of 'leftmost' contiguous bits in the host
address field for encapsulations of IPv4, that should be
maintained in this collection. This object controls how the
dsmonHostAddress object is derived for packets which contain
an encapsulation of IPv4.
If this object has a value less than 32, then 'm' rightmost
bits, where 'm' is equal to '32 -
dsmonHostCtlIPv4PrefixLen', will be cleared to zero for
counting purposes only. The 'leftmost' bit is the most
significant bit of the first network-byte-order octet of the
address.
If this object is equal to 32, then no bits are cleared in
each dsmonHostAddress field.
This object MUST NOT be modified if the associated
dsmonHostCtlStatus object is equal to active(1). |
