DESCRIPTION
|
"This TC describes an object which counts events with the
|
following semantics: objects of this type will be set to
|
zero(0) on creation and will thereafter count appropriate
|
events, wrapping back to zero(0) when the value 2^32 is
|
reached.
|
|
Provided that an application discovers the new object within
|
the minimum time to wrap it can use the initial value as a
|
delta since it last polled the table of which this object is
|
part. It is important for a management station to be aware of
|
this minimum time and the actual time between polls, and to
|
discard data if the actual time is too long or there is no
|
defined minimum time.
|
|
Typically this TC is used in tables where the INDEX space is
|
constantly changing and/or the TimeFilter mechanism is in use."
