When the Containment Protocol is indicated, the main objective is to destroy all species that have enough calcium to be infected by the Flood, by activating the Halo rings. [[Sentinel]] and [[Enforcer]] drones must be deployed to engage what Flood forces have managed to escape and keep them contained within the facility. If containment is breached, then [[Halo Array|emergency measures]] must be taken to ensure that the situation returns to stability. | When the Containment Protocol is indicated, the main objective is to destroy all species that have enough calcium to be infected by the Flood, by activating the Halo rings.

Protocol also includes the procedures involved in activating the Halo Array. It requires a [[Reclaimer]] to retrieve an [[Index]] for activation, that the Monitor store the Index within its own data arrays for transport, and that only the Reclaimer can use the Index to activate the system, because the Monitor is not able to activate Halo by itself.<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', level ''[[Two Betrayals (Level)|Two Betrayals]]'' | Protocol also includes the procedures involved in activating the Halo Array.

There are different procedures about enforcing this protocol, judged by the size of the outbreak. If the outbreak is a minor one, then, the [[monitor]] must deploy a few [[sentinels]] and [[constructors]] to make the needed procedures, but if it is a major outbreak, like the outbreak seen on [[Quarantine Zone]], [[Major Sentinel]]s and [[Enforcer]] drones will be mass deployed to eradicate all [[Flood]] and its vectors. Containment Protocol is normally enforced by Monitors, but there have been cases of Sentinels taking it upon themselves to enforce containment. | There are different procedures about enforcing this protocol, judged by the size of the outbreak.

The leadership of a Monitor is important, but not always necessary. The Sentinels and Enforcers of [[Delta Halo]] continued to [[Battle of the Quarantine Zone|enforce containment]] even after their monitor, [[2401 Penitent Tangent]], was captured by the [[Gravemind]]<ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', level ''[[Sacred Icon (Level)|Sacred Icon]]''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', level ''[[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]]''</ref>, and despite their lack of a Monitor the Sentinels of [[Onyx]] abide by Containment Protocol by neutralizing local infection vectors - the [[UNSC Marines]], [[Spartan-III]]'s and the Covenant forces on or near the planet. <ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'''</ref> | The leadership of a Monitor is important, but not always necessary.
