The value of this attribute determines whether the SLA Monitor agent will refuse test requests from the server. When this attribute is set to 'allow(1)', an agent will accept test requests from the server. A 'refuse(2)' setting will cause the agent to reject test requests from the server. From a usage perspective, it may be necessary to temporarily refuse server test requests if the agent is being actively managed by a server but the administrator wishes to use the CLI or SNMP interfaces to initiate tests manually.
