This read-create RowStatus governs creation and activation of a proxy table row, requiring createAndGo(4) or createAndWait(5) to create a new row, and once the row is active(1) several columns including snmpProxyType and the target selectors cannot be modified. Admins use it to provision a complete proxy translation entry and then lock it against accidental changes once active. For example, an admin must set this to createAndGo(4) after populating the other proxy columns to bring a new forwarding rule into service.
