Entries are automatically created and deleted from this table, and exist whenever the OAM entity supports Ethernet OA events (as indicated by the eventSupport bit in dot3OamFunctionsSuppported). Values in the table are maintained across changes to the value of dot3OamOperStatus.

Event configuration controls when the local management entity sends Event Notification OAMPDUs to its OAM peer, and when certain event flags are set or cleared in OAMPDUs.
