first identity and be incremented for each subsequent identity. For example, the device may
use IAID value 1 for the first physical interface and value 2 for the second. Alternatively, the
device may use IAID value 1 for the virtual circuit corresponding to the first connection
object in the data model and value 2 for the second connection object in the data model.
