What is apsGroupName?

This display string is the name identifying an APS group, i.e. the working-plus-protection port pairing, and serves as the index key for rows in the APS group table. Admins use this name to look up or reference a specific redundant SONET line pairing when checking its state or issuing an APS switch command. For example, an admin managing a ring named "SONET-Ring1" in apsGroupName would target that same name when checking apsGroupLastCommand to verify a recent forced switchover was applied to the correct group.
