The IP Address
Translation Table
The IP address translation table contains the IpAddress to physical
address equivalences. Some interfaces do not use translation tables
for determining address equivalences (e.g., DDN-X.25 has an
algorithmic method); if all interfaces are of this type, then the
Address Translation table is empty; that is, it has zero entries.

IP Address Translation Table
MIB-2 Object Name Type Access Description
ipNetToMediaIfIndex INTEGER R/W The interface on which this entry's equivalence is effective. The
interface identified by a particular value of this index is the same
interface as identified by the same value of ifIndex.
ipNetToMediaPhysAddress PhysAddress R/W The media-dependent `physical' address.
ipNetToMediaNetAddress IpAddress R/W The IpAddress corresponding to the media-dependent `physical'
address.
ipNetToMediaType INTEGER R/W The type of mapping. Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has the
effect of invalidating the corresponding entry in the ipNetToMediaTable.
That is, it effectively disassociates the interface identified with said entry
from the mapping identified with said entry. It is an
implementation-specific matter as to whether the agent removes an
invalidated entry from the table. Accordingly, management stations must
be prepared to receive tabular information from agents that corresponds
to entries not currently in use. Proper interpretation of such entries
requires examination of the relevant ipNetToM MediaType object.
Values:
other(1) — None of the following
invalid(2) — Invalidated mapping
dynamic(3)
static(4)

MIB-2 Object Name Type Access Description
ipRoutingDiscards Counter R The number of routing entries which were chosen to be discarded even though they
are valid. One possible reason for discarding such an entry could be to free-up buffer
space for other routing entries.
