| Description | The local IP address for this UDP-Lite endpoint.
The value of this object can be represented in three
possible ways, depending on the characteristics of the
listening application:
1. For an application that is willing to accept both
IPv4 and IPv6 datagrams, the value of this object
must be ''h (a zero-length octet-string), with
the value of the corresponding instance of the
EndpointLocalAddressType object being unknown(0).
2. For an application that is willing to accept only
IPv4 or only IPv6 datagrams, the value of this
object must be '0.0.0.0' or '::', respectively,
while the corresponding instance of the
EndpointLocalAddressType object represents the
appropriate address type.
3. For an application that is listening for data
destined only to a specific IP address, the value
of this object is the specific IP address for
which this node is receiving packets, with the
corresponding instance of the
EndpointLocalAddressType object representing the
appropriate address type.
As this object is used in the index for the
udpliteEndpointTable, implementors should be careful
not to create entries that would result in OIDs with
more than 128 sub-identifiers; this is because of SNMP
and SMI limitations. |
