command is being executed (some processes may still be running), the

status of the AVM is Shutting Down.

The table below describes the status of an AVM depending on the Admin and

Oper modes, as displayed in the Status column of the AVMs table. The

Admin mode is the administrative instructions that are sent to the VNE. The

Oper mode is the actual status of the VNE, for example, Up.
