Hi :eek:)
I was just wondering if I could have a multi-table one-to-one sparse dependent relationship between conceptional tables.
So there will be a base table with a fixed number of rows that contains the index. Then various other tables which uses the base table's index but may only contain a couple of rows that have specific attribute values for the indices of the base table. For example a device may have 10 slots, 3 with ethernet interfaces and 2 with serial interfaces and the other slots blank. The MIB design would be to have a base table with an index of the slot values 1-10, and then ethernet interface and serial interface tables that use the base table index. Is it possible to have this? and will it work?

Thanking you,
Hanh Thao Nguyen
