Provides the media address of the next-hop to which the packet for this host is to be sent to. It is mandatory to specify the next-hop IP address and the outgoing ifIndex using the ffHostCacheNextHopAddr and ffHostCacheIfIndex respectively before setting this value. This object must be specified for hosts, which are reached through the interfaces of ethernetCsmacd(6) and iso88025TokenRing(9) type. The value for such interfaces would be the MAC address as per the representation used for the particular media. For interfaces of type ppp(23) and pppMultilinkBundle(108), this object must have the default value 0. For virtual circuit interfaces (type miox25(38) and frameRelayMPI(92)), this object must have the MIB-2 ifIndex assigned to the respective virtual circuit. For virtual interfaces (type ipOverAtm(114) and frameRelay(32)), this object MAY be used to (optionally) specify the MIB-2 ifIndex assigned to the outgoing virtual circuit. If not specified the value would be obtained automatically from the respective modules. A set on this object for an entry whose ffHostCacheEntryType is dynamic is not permitted.
