[AGENT++] tables within tables

[Frank Fock]

Marcos,

As Henning pointed out, there "tables within tables" cannot be
represented directly with SMI (and thus with MIB specifications).
You will have to use 2 tables where the second table shares the
index of the first and extends it by its own (additional) index.

The concepts are explained in Understanding SNMP MIBs. For
a more detailed explaination you can also read the tables.pdf
document from http://www.snmpinfo.com (David Perkins site).

Best regards,
Frank
