This is a standard RowStatus for creating, activating, or removing rows in the IKE Crypto Map table, per its description. An admin commits a fully configured IKE crypto map (match address, policy, transform sets, lifetimes) by setting this to active once all its dependent fields are filled in correctly. For example, after finishing configuration of a new site-to-site crypto map, an admin would set this object to active to allow the map to begin negotiating with its peer.
