Mapping Fixed-Length Subtype Definitions

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

Where the SYNTAX clause of the SNMPv1 and SNMPv2C OBJECT-TYPE macro refers to an SNMP primitive type, named type, or textual convention containing a subtype definition derived from a fixed-length OCTET STRING or "Opaque", an additional qualifier is required to specify that fixed-length value.

The CIM property qualifier fixed_length specifies the fixed-length value. The fixed_length qualifier is represented as an unsigned 32-bit integer value.

For example:

IPXADDRESS := OCTET STRING (SIZE (6))
 

This example maps to:

fixed_length(6)
