The row status variable, used in accordance to installation and removal conventions for conceptual rows. The rowstatus of a currently active row in the alaVrrp3OperTable is constrained by the operational state of the corresponding virtual router. When `alaVrrp3OperRowStatus' is set to active(1), no other objects in the conceptual row, with the exception of `alaVrrp3OperAdminState', can be modified. Prior to setting the `alaVrrp3OperRowStatus' object from `active' to a different value, the `alaVrrp3OperAdminState' object must be set to `down' and the `alaVrrp3OperState' object be transitioned to `initialize'. To create a row in this table, a manager sets this object to either createAndGo(4) or createAndWait(5). Until instances of all corresponding columns are appropriately configured, the value of the corresponding instance of the `alaVrrp3OperRowStatus' column will be read as notReady(3). In particular, a newly created row cannot be made active(1) until (minimally) the corresponding instance of `alaVrrp3OperVrId' has been set and there is at least one active row in the `alaVrrp3AssoIpAddrTable' defining an associated IP address for the virtual router.
