Unknown One of the following conditions is true:
• Communication between a Proxy Agent and a managed
node is unstable; therefore, the Proxy Agent cannot
indicate the status or health of the managed node.
• The NMS cannot communicate with the Proxy Agent and,
therefore, cannot determine the status of the managed
node.
• A dynamic connection that has not received a fault status
update or a major or minor alert.
