This read-write flag turns Usage Parameter Control (UPC, i.e., traffic policing) on or off for cells arriving on this channel in the ingress direction. Admins enable UPC to enforce that a connection doesn't exceed its negotiated traffic contract (like PCR and CIR), protecting the network from a misbehaving or misconfigured CPE, while disabling it removes that policing enforcement. For example, an admin troubleshooting unexpected cell discards might temporarily disable ingrUpcEnable to confirm whether UPC policing, rather than queue congestion, is the cause of the drops.
