Description: This table controls how channelTable based packet selection is performed on behalf of particular vdsControlEntries configured on this agent.

All packets which would be accepted by an RMON channel and (potentially) processed by one or more bufferEntries, (i.e., the output of the channel function, after the channelAcceptType is applied) are selected for processing. Note that the channelIfIndex object in the specified channelEntry must identify the same interface as indicated by the vdsControlParent object in vdsControlEntries which reference this table. An agent will ignore entries in this table during the selection process, unless this condition is true.

All entries with the same vdsControlChanSelIndex are evaluated as a group, and an individual packet is selected if the evaluation of any row within the group produces a 'selected' result. There is no evaluation ordering defined for each row within a group, and an agent may choose to stop evaluation after the first 'selected' result.

It is an implementation-specific manner as to the complexity and capacity of the entries allowed in this table. Actual configurations will be constrained by agent functionality and platform resources.
