3.2.6.3.1. ifTable Object Type Names
The name of a subnet interface, s, is the OBJECT IDENTIFIER value of
the form i, where i has the value of that instance of the ifIndex
object type associated with s.
For each object type, t, for which the defined name, n, has a prefix
of ifEntry, an instance, i, of t is named by an OBJECT IDENTIFIER of
the form n.s, where s is the name of the subnet interface about which
i represents information.
For example, suppose one wanted to identify the instance of the
variable ifType associated with interface 2. Accordingly, ifType.2
would identify the desired instance.
