Table indexing

In the description of the MIBs in Management Information Base reference, the header for each table specifies how each row in the table is indexed. A table can have one or more indexes. For example, the header for rdbmsSrvTable is rdbmsSrvTable[applIndex], which means that the table has one index called applIndex.

Each index value is concatenated to the column OID with periods between each value. If a MIB table has several indexes, the indexes are concatenated one after the other. Most SNMP Network Managers display only the final portion of the OID that relates to the table being displayed. Some SNMP Network Managers display the OID as part of the information about each individual item; other SNMP Network Managers display the OID as part of a header for a list of values.
