This variable is used to manage the creation and deletion of conceptual rows in the portDLCIConfigTable and follows the SNMPv2 RowStatus conventions by supporting the following values: - `active', which indicates that the conceptual row is available for use by the managed device. For a management protocol set operation, a genErr response is returned when the row does not exist. - `createAndGo', which is supplied by a management station wishing to create a new instance of a conceptual row and to have its status automatically set to active, making it available for use by the managed device. For a management protocol set operation, a genErr response is returned when the row already exists. - `destroy', which is supplied by a management station wishing to delete all of the instances associated with an existing conceptual row. Note that all of the above values may be specified in a management protocol set operation, and only the 'active' value will be returned in response to a management protocol retrieval operation. For a management protocol set operation, if other variable bindings are included in the same PDU, then a genErr response is returned. Also note that deleting a DLCI entry will only remove it from the database file, and it's existence will still be known by the protocol until the node is rebooted.
