Description: This object represents an arbitrary local integer value used by this agent to identify a particular connection instance, unique only for the indicated local connection endpoint.

A particular ptopoConnIndex value may be reused in the event an entry is aged out and later re-learned with the same (or different) remote chassis and port identifiers.

An agent is encouraged to assign monotonically increasing index values to new entries, starting with one, after each

reboot. It is considered unlikely that the ptopoConnIndex will wrap between reboots.
