Address Translation Group

Implementation of the Address Translation group is mandatory for all systems.
Note however that this group is deprecated by MIB-II. From MIB-II and onwards,
each network protocol group contains its own address translation tables.

Address Translation Table

The Address Translation group contains one table, which is the union across all
interfaces of the translation tables for converting a NetworkAddress (for example,
an IP address) into a subnetwork-specific address. For lack of a better term, this
document refers to such a subnetwork-specific address as a physical address.
Examples of such translation tables are: for broadcast media where ARP is in use,
the translation table is equivalent to the ARP cache; or, on an X.25 network where
non-algorithmic translation to X.121 addresses is required, the translation table
contains the NetworkAddress to X.121 address equivalences.

1.3.6.1.2.1.3.1
The Address Translation tables contain the NetworkAddress
to physical address equivalences. Some interfaces do not use
translation tables for determining address equivalences (for
example, DDN-X.25 has an algorithmic method); if all
interfaces are of this type, then the Address Translation table
is empty, and therefore has zero entries.
1.3.6.1.2.1.3.1.1
Each entry contains one NetworkAddress to physical address
equivalence.
atIfIndex, atNetAddress
1.3.6.1.2.1.3.1.1.1
The interface on which this entry's equivalence is effective.
The interface identified by a particular value of this index is
the same interface as identified by the same value of ifIndex.
