Description: The status of the 'cross-connect capability' relationship between two sub-layers. The following values can be returned: true(1) - indicates that the sub-layer interface, identified by the ifStackLowerLayer MAY be connected to run 'below' the sub-layer interface, identified by the ifStackHigherLayer index. false(2) - the sub-layer interfaces cannot be connected temporarily due to unavailability of the interface(s), e.g., one of the interfaces is located on an absent pluggable module.

Note that lower-layer interface availability per higher-layer, indicated by the value of 'true', can be constrained by other parameters, for example, by the aggregation capacity of a higher-layer interface or by the lower-layer interface in question being already connected to another higher-layer interface. In order to ensure that a particular sub-layer can be connected to another sub-layer, all respective objects (e.g., ifCapStackTable, ifStackTable, and efmCuPAFCapacity for EFMCu interfaces) SHALL be inspected.

This object is read-only, unlike ifStackStatus, as it describes a cross-connect capability.
