Description

entPhysicalContainsTable

OID
Description

entPhysicalContainsEntry

OID
186
The value of this object identifies a particular conceptual row
associated with the indicated entPhysicalIndex and
entLogicalIndex pair.
Since only physical ports are modeled in this table, only
entries that represent interfaces or ports are allowed. If an
ifEntry exists on behalf of a particular physical port, then this
object should identify the associated ifEntry. For repeater
ports, the appropriate row in the rptrPortGroupTable should
be identified instead.
For example, suppose a physical port was represented by
entPhysicalEntry.3, entLogicalEntry.15 existed for a repeater,
and entLogicalEntry.22 existed for a bridge. Then there
might be two related instances of entAliasMappingIdentifier:
entAliasMappingIdentifier.3.15 ==
rptrPortGroupIndex.5.2
entAliasMappingIdentifier.3.22 == ifIndex.17
It is possible that other mappings (besides interfaces and
repeater ports) may be defined in the future, as required.
Bridge ports are identified by examining the Bridge MIB and
appropriate ifEntries associated with each dot1dBasePort, and
are thus not represented in this table.
1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.3.3
A table that exposes the container/"containee" relationships
between physical entities. This table provides all the
information found by constructing the virtual containment
tree for a given entPhysicalTable, but in a more direct format.
In the event a physical entity is contained by more than one
other physical entity (for example, double-wide modules),
this table should include these additional mappings, which
cannot be represented in the entPhysicalTable virtual
containment tree.
