/**
* The MOTable interface describes SNMP conceptual tables.
* In general, a conceptual table can be implemented in two different ways:
*
* - For large tables, a virtual table model is best suited where rows are
* created on behalf of a request only. The instrumentation directly propagates
* data to the managed objects without holding the data in a table model.
* - For small or medium size tables, holding the data in (non virtual) table
* model provides data caching and decoupling of the instrumentation.
