Table 11. IPProtocolEndpoint (continued)
Property Description
defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The method approach is
considered superior to a WRITEable property, because it
allows an explicit invocation of the operation and the return of
a result code. If knowledge of the last RequestedState is not
supported for the EnabledLogicalElement, the property is
NULL or have the value 12 Not Applicable.
Status
A string indicating the current status of the object. Various
operational and non-operational statuses are defined. This
property is deprecated instead of OperationalStatus, which
includes the same semantics in its enumeration. This change is
made for the following reasons:
● Status is more correctly defined as an array. This definition
overcomes the limitation of describing status using a single
value, when it is really a multi-valued property (for
example, an element may be OK AND Stopped.
● A MaxLen of 10 is too restrictive and leads to unclear
enumerated values.
● The change to a uint16 data type was discussed when CIM
V2.0 was defined. However, existing V1.0 implementations
used the string property and did not want to modify their
code. Therefore, Status was grandfathered into the
Schema. Use of the deprecated qualifier allows the
maintenance of the existing property, but also permits an
improved definition using OperationalStatus.
