(DMTF) Common Information Model (CIM)–based

management information. The CIM information

defines the semantics and information types that

can be modified in a managed system.

The CMC WS-MAN implementation uses SSL on

port 443 for transport security, and supports basic

authentication. The data available through WS-

Management is provided by CMC instrumentation

interface mapped to the DMTF profiles and

extension profiles.

NOTE: The SSL port used for transport

security is the same as the CMC HTTPS port.
