What is entPhysicalParentRelPos?

This read-only integer indicates the relative position or slot number of a physical entity within its parent container (such as a line card in a chassis slot). The value is device-specific and must be interpreted in the context of the parent entity's structure and available slots. Management systems use this attribute along with entPhysicalContainedIn to reconstruct the physical hierarchy and topology of a multi-module network device.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ENTITY-MIB::entPhysicalParentRelPos

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ENTITY-MIB::entPhysicalParentRelPos.1
