Guard Systems

Guard systems serve as a home base for player factions. They are generally restricted to players of the specific faction, and closest allies - although this restriction is only enforced by the faction itself (there are no rules against entering a guard system without the controlling faction's permission). Guard system bases and patrols are usually assigned to the guard faction of the faction owning the system. These guard factions are generally hostile to most players. Owner factions are allowed to deal with intruders in their guard systems as they see fit. General restrictions on, for instance, capital ships engaging transports do not apply, making smuggling or moving through these systems a hazardous endeavour at best. NPCs in these systems are typically heavily armed.

Between 4.86 and 4.88 the most Guard systems has been removed, deguarded, partly deguarded or were funsionated with other systems. The status give you information about that.
