xtmClassPeerClassificationOrder
1.3.6.1.4.1.838.3.2.1.2.1.44
A positive integer representing the classification order
of peers within the classification hierarchy. For example,
when creating three children under the 'root' class the
packet classifier checks incoming packets againts classification
parameters from left to right in the order in which the children
were created. Each peer (aka 'sibling') is assigned an xtmClass-
PeerClassificationOrder of 100 by default, as shown below.

In the figure above, classification order proceeds from A to B
to C. In order to alter this order, this object may be modified.
For example, to change the order to C, B A one might assign
an xtmClassPeerClassificationOrder of 50 to class C, and an
xtmClassPeerClassificationOrder of 150 to class A, resulting in
the ordered tree shown below.
