The type of mapping.
Setting this object to the value invalid(2) has the effect
of invalidating the corresponding entry in the
inetNetToMediaTable. That is, it effectively disassociates
the interface identified with said entry from the mapping
identified with said entry. It is an implementation-
specific matter as to whether the agent removes an
invalidated entry from the table. Accordingly, management
stations must be prepared to receive tabular information
from agents that corresponds to entries not currently in
use. Proper interpretation of such entries requires
examination of the relevant inetNetToMediaType object.
The 'dynamic(3)' type indicates that the IP address to
physical addresses mapping has been dynamically resolved
using e.g. IPv4 ARP or the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol.
The 'static(4)' type indicates that the mapping has been
statically configured. The 'local(5)' type indicates that
the mapping is provided for an entity's own interface
address.
