What is applDescription?
This object holds a short text description of the network service application, intended to identify and briefly describe it in a status display. Admins use it to quickly recognize what a given application entry represents without needing to know internal naming conventions. For example, this might read 'SMTP relay for outbound mail', clarifying the purpose of that applTable entry.
