Description: The status of this APS channel entry.

An entry may not exist in the active state unless all objects in the entry have an appropriate value.

A row in the apsChanConfigTable may not be created, deleted, set to notInService or otherwise modified if the apsChanConfigGroupName value is equal to an apsConfigName value and the associated apsConfigRowStatus object is equal to active. However, if the apsConfigRowStatus object is equal to notInService, a row may be created, deleted or modified. In other words, a channel may not be added, deleted or modified if the group is active.

A row may be created with an apsChanConfigGroupName value that is not equal to any existing instance of apsConfigName. This action is the initial step in adding a SONET LTE to a new APS group.

If this object is set to destroy, the associated instance of apsMapGroupName will be set to a string of size 0 and the apsMapChanNumber will be set to -1. The channel status entry will also be deleted by this action.

apsChanConfigNumber must be set to a unique channel number within the APS group. The value 0 indicates the null channel. The values 1-14 define a working channel. When an attempt is made to set the corresponding apsConfigRowStatus field to active the apsChanConfigNumber values of all entries with equal apsChanConfigGroupName fields must represent a set of consecutive integer values beginning with 0 or 1, depending on the architecture of the group, and ending with n, where n is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 14. Otherwise, the error inconsistentValue is returned to the apsConfigRowStatus set attempt.
