connUnitEventIndex (1.3.6.1.3.94.1.11.1.2)
Each connectivity unit has its own event buffer. As it wraps, it may write over
previous events. This object is an index into the buffer. It is recommended that this
table be read using getNext's to retrieve the initial table. The management appli-
cation 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 may be
events that may not be contained in the agent's internal event buffer. For example,
an agent may 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 max, event index 76 will no longer be available.
The index value is an incrementing integer starting from one every time there is a
table reset. On table reset, all contents are emptied and all indexes are set to
zero. 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 will cause the index value to roll over
and start at one again.
