What are device management states and actions?

Management states

Management State is a parameter that is applicable to classic devices only. It indicates the state of a discovered classic device in terms of the NFM-P managed network.

The Management State parameter appears as a dash ( — ) for MDM devices, to indicate that it is not applicable.

Management actions

Available actions in the Manage menu depend on the NE mode, management state, and resync status. If a management operation is in progress, actions may not be available.
