Description: An entry describes the configuration associated with a port.

A peer SNMP entity may create a port config by setting an instance of cmsConfigPortStatus to 'createAndWait' or 'createAndGo'. Observe that an implementation that does not support these options must specify these limitations in an agent capabilities statement.

Other management entities (e.g., the local console) may perform actions resulting in the creation of a member link. In these cases, the system must automatically create a row in the cmsConfigPortTable.

A peer SNMP entity may destroy a port config by setting the corresponding instance of cmsConfigPortStatus to 'destroy'. Observe that an implementation that does not support this option must specify this limitation in an agent capabilities statement.

Other management entities may perform actions resulting in the destruction of a profile. In these cases, the system must automatically destroy the corresponding row in the cmsConfigPortTable.
