connUnitEventIndex 1.3.6.1.3.94.1.11.1.2
Each connectivity unit has its own event buffer. As it wraps, it might write over previous events. This
object is an index into the buffer. It is recommended that this table is read using "getNext"s to
retrieve the initial table. The management application should read the event table at periodic
intervals and then determine if any new entries were added by comparing the last known index
value with the current highest index value. The management application should then update its
copy of the event table. If the read interval is too long, it is possible that there might be events that
might not be contained in the agent's internal event buffer.
An agent might read events 50-75.
At the next read interval, connUnitEventCurrID is 189. If the management application tries to read
event index 76 and the agent's internal buffer is 100 entries maximum, event index 76 is no longer
available.
The index value is an incrementing integer starting from 1 every time there is a table reset. On
table reset, all contents are emptied and all indices are set to 0. When an event is added to the
table, the event is assigned the next-higher integer value than the last item entered into the table.
If the index value reaches its maximum value, the next item entered causes the index value to roll
over and start at 1 again.
Mapped to swEventIndex.
