chassis may be identified and a chassis ID subtype is used to indicate the type of
component being referenced by the chassis ID field.
Table 12-1 Chassis ID Subtype
ID Basis Reference
Chassis component EntPhysicalAlias when entPhysClass has a value of ‘chassis(3)’ (IETF RFC 2737)
Interface alias IfAlias (IETF RFC 2863)
Port component EntPhysicalAlias when entPhysicalClass has a value ‘port(10)’ or ‘backplane(4)’
(IETF RFC 2737)
MAC address MAC address (IEEE Std 802-2001)
Network address networkAddress
Interface name ifName (IETF RFC 2863)
