public class OID extends AbstractVariable implements AssignableFromString, AssignableFromIntArray
The Object Identifier Class. The Object Identifier (OID) class is the encapsulation of an SMI object identifier. The SMI object is a data identifier for a data element found in a Management Information Base (MIB), as defined by a MIB definition. The OID class allows definition and manipulation of object identifiers.
