This object contains an appropriate value to be used for mplsXCIndex when creating entries in the

mplsXCTable. The value 0 indicates that no unassigned entries are available. To obtain the value of mplsXCIndex for a new entry in the mplsXCTable, the manager issues a management protocol retrieval operation to obtain the current value of mplsXCIndex. After each retrieval operation, the agent should modify the value to reflect the next unassigned index. After a manager retrieves a value the agent will determine through its local policy when this index value will be made available for reuse.
