Abstract
Documentation:
The flag entity represents the interface flag line, which generally contains flags like "UP" to denote an active interface, "PROMISC" to note that the interface is listening for Ethernet frames not specifically addressed to it, and others. This element can be included multiple times in a system characteristic item in order to record a multitude of flags. Note that the entity_check attribute associated with EntityStateStringType guides the evaluation of entities like this that refer to items that can occur an unbounded number of times.
