In Enhanced mode, this object specifies whether subsequent SNMP Responses (generated by the local SNMP agent) to operations that read the configuration of Zone Sets, Zones, Members, Aliases and Attributes will reflect the values stored in the current (committed) Zone Set database, or those stored in the 'copy' database.

In Basic mode, the value of this object is always 'committedDB' (since there is no 'copy' database in Basic mode). In SNMP agents that don't support write access to the Zone Set database, this object is always 'committedDB' (since the copy database, if it were to exist, would be identical).
