Description: This object allows for the dynamic creation and deletion of entries within the etsysPolicyProfileTable as well as the activation and deactivation of these entries.

When this object's value is active(1) the corresponding row's etsysPolicyProfilePortVid, etsysPolicyProfilePriority, and all entries within the etsysPolicyClassificationTable indexed by this row's etsysPolicyProfileIndex are available to be applied to network access ports or stations on the managed entity.

All ports corresponding to rows within the etsysPortPolicyProfileTable whose etsysPortPolicyProfileOperID is equal to the etsysPolicyProfileIndex, shall have the corresponding policy applied. Likewise, all stations corresponding to rows within the etsysStationPolicyProfileTable whose etsysStationPolicyProfileOperID is equal to the etsysPolicyProfileIndex, shall have the corresponding policy applied.

The value of etsysPortPolicyProfileOperID for each such row in the etsysPortPolicyProfileTable will be equal to the etsysPortPolicyProfileAdminID, unless the authorization information from a source such as a RADIUS server indicates to the contrary.

Refer to the specific objects within this MIB as well as well as RFC2674, the CTRON-PRIORITY-CLASSIFY-MIB, the CTRON-VLAN-CLASSIFY-MIB, and the CTRON-RATE-POLICING-MIB for a complete explanation of the application and behavior of these objects.

When this object's value is set to notInService(2) this policy will not be applied to any rows within the etsysPortPolicyProfileTable.

To allow policy profiles to be applied for security implementations, setting this object's value from active(1) to notInService(2) or destroy(6) SHALL fail if one or more instances of etsysPortPolicyProfileOperID or etsysStationPolicyProfileOperID currently reference this entry's associated policy due to a set by an underlying security protocol such as RADIUS.

For network functionality and clarity, setting this object to destroy(6) SHALL fail if one or more instances of etsysPortPolicyProfileOperID or etsysStationPolicyProfileOperID currently references this entry's etsysPolicyProfileIndex.

Refer to the RowStatus convention for further details on the behavior of this object.
