When I perform a get-next to its atmfAtmAddressTable, following result is printed: atmfAddressStatus.103.20.57.153.153.153.153.153.153.0.0.153.153.1.1.2.0. 161.10.0.128.0 = 1 This is the entry for our ATM Workstation, which is connected to this switch. I interprete this entry as following: - the last 7 bytes define the ESI and the SEL of the ATM Host ESI: 2.0.161.10.0.128 SEL:0 - the 13 bytes before define the Net Prefix 57.153.153.153.153.153.153.0.0.153.153.1.1 That is right so far. But what mean the first two bytes: 103.20 ?? Since the first index defines the ATM Port, what means the second ? The atmfAddressEntry (UNI 3.1) uses following index: atmfAddressPort : INTEGER atmfAddressAtmAddress : AtmAddress --> OCTET STRING(SIZE(8|20)) So the above entry should have a maximum index length of 21. (Port and ATM Address) and not 22. Can anyone help me ? Thanks and best regards, ******************************** Dieter Klippel Richard Hirschmann GmbH & Co.

The "103" is the port identifier. Since the address, itself, is variable length (8 or 20 octets), a length is required to precede it (20 in this case). See RFC1212 for a description of variable length indices in MIB tables.
