PhysicalIndex
Arbitrary value that uniquely identifies the physical entity. Value should be a small positive integer;
index values for different physical entities are not necessarily contiguous.
Syntax Integer (1... 2147483647)
PhysicalClass
An enumerated value that provides an indication of the general hardware type of a particular
physical entity. There are no restrictions as to the number of entPhysicalEntries of each
entPhysicalClass, which must be instantiated by an agent.

TABLE 10 Possible Values for PhysicalClass
Values Description
other (1) The physical entity class is known but does not match any of the supported values.
unknown (2) The physical entity class is unknown to the agent.
chassis (3) The physical entity class is an overall container for networking equipment. Any class of
physical entity except a stack can be contained within a chassis, and a chassis might be
contained only within a stack.
backplane (4) The physical entity class is a device for aggregating and forwarding networking traffic, such
as a shared backplane in a modular Ethernet switch. Note that an agent might model a
backplane as a single physical entity, which is actually implemented as multiple discrete
physical components (within a chassis or stack).
