This read-only value reports the internal NSAP address the switch assigned to the local endpoint of this connection. An admin cares because this NSAP address, together with the local VPI and VCI, forms the unique identifier for this connection endpoint across the ATM networking domain, useful for tracing a connection end to end. For example, when diagnosing an SPVC that isn't routing correctly, the admin can use this local NSAP address to confirm which specific endpoint on the switch corresponds to the connection in question.
