Hi Atmesh,

Index values must either be "known" a priori or discovered.
You can discover index values either via notifications (per
your comments below) or, more typically, via a GetNext walk
starting with some value preceding the first legal value for
the given index.  Often, a GetNext table "walk" is performed
to build a set of usable index values for a given instance
of a management app.

Let me know if that is unclear or seems problematic to you.

Thanks,

BobN
