This variable indicates the Status of this Virtual Circuit. It may be enabled or disabled. In order to modify a Virtual Circuit, the new desired variables should be modified and then this variable should be set (or set again) to enabled. At that time desired variables will become the operational (or in-use) variables. To remove a PVC, set its status to delete. By default, if not configured when creating the entry, the status is disabled. An existing instance of this object cannot be set to createRequest(4). This object may only be set to createRequest(4) when this instance is created. When this object is created, the agent may wish to create supplemental object instances to complete a conceptual row in this table. Immediately after completing the create operation, the agent must set this object to underCreation(5). Entries shall exist in the underCreation(5) state until the management station is finished configuring the entry and sets this object to active(1), inactive(2), or aborts, setting this object to delete(4). If the agent determines that an entry has been in the underCreation(5) state for an abnormally long time, it may decide that the management station has become unavailable. If the agent makes this decision, it may set this object to delete(3) to reclaim the entry. A prudent agent will understand that the management station may need to wait for human input and will allow for that possibility in its determination of this abnormally long period.
