This type of object is normally used to create a new row or modify or delete an existing row in the table with which it is associated. A profile is activated by setting this object to`active'. When `active' is set, the system will validate the profile. Before a profile can be deleted or taken out of service, (by setting this object to `destroy' or `outOfService') it must be first unreferenced from all associated lines. According to the ADSL-LINE-MIB, if the implementor of this MIB has chosen not to implement `dynamic assignment' of profiles, this object's MIN-ACCESS is read-only and its value is always to be `active'. There has been some discussion of using the 'active' and 'notInService' states for the TA5000/TA1100F implementation. But it appears more likely that we will follow the recommendation in the ADSL-LINE-MIB for static profiles and maintain 'active' row status.
