This enumerated field (CucsFabricConfState) reports whether the requested configuration mode has actually been applied for the fabric interconnect's internal endpoint manager, the per-switch process that drives port and port-channel configuration through its state machine. This is the confirmation flag an admin checks on this endpoint manager after requesting a mode change (e.g. moving to port-channel) to know whether the fabric interconnect finished applying it or is still catching up. A value of 'applied' confirms the requested mode took effect; 'pending' would mean it's still being applied.
