Description | A ping request entry.
A management station wishing to create an entry should
first generate a pseudo-random serial number to be used
as the index to this sparse table. It must also create in the same
PDU the associated instance of the address object. It should also
modify in the same PDU the default values for the other configuration
objects if the defaults are not appropriate.
Once the sequence completes, the management station should
retrieve the values of the status objects of interest, and
should then delete the entry. In order to prevent old
entries from clogging the table, entries will be aged out,
but an entry will never be deleted within 5 minutes of
completing. |
