dlswDirMacCacheNextIndex OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER (0..2147483647)
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The next value of dlswDirMacIndex to be assigned by
the agent. A retrieval of this object atomically reserves
the returned value for use by the manager to create a row
in dlswDirMacTable. This makes it possible for the agent
to control the index space of the MAC address cache, yet
allows the manager to administratively create new rows."
```
