Attribute type APP_ID can be used only once per NSProfile.)
2. Values for an attribute are mentioned as array of strings.
( Example - For type APP_ID , values can be mentioned as ["SSL","FTP"].)
3. If sub-attribtes are mentioned for an attribute, then only single
value is allowed for that attribute.
