This index is used as a secondary index to uniquely identify this row. Before creating a row in this table, the 'mplsLdpEntityIndexNext' object should be retrieved. That value should be used for the value of this index when creating a row in this table. NOTE: if a value of zero (0) is retrieved, that indicates that no rows can be created in this table at this time. A secondary index (this object) is meaningful to some but not all, LDP implementations. For example an LDP implementation which uses PPP would use this index to differentiate PPP sub-links. Another way to use this index is to give this the value of ifIndex. However, this is dependant on the implementation. This field is deprecated in the following tables provided by PRVT-CR-LDP Session Controller. - mplsLdpEntityTable. - mplsLdpPeerTable. In these tables the value of the Entity Index will always be filled in to be 1.
