friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and ElementName properties.
EnabledDefault
An enumerated value indicating an administrator's default or startup configuration for the Enabled State of an element.
Possible values are:
2 = Enabled
3 = Disabled
5 = Not Applicable
6 = Enabled but Offline
7 = No Default
9 = Quiesce
.. = DMTF Reserved
32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
By default, the element is "Enabled" (value=2).
EnabledState
An integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element. It can also indicate the transitions between these requested states.
Possible values are:
0 = Unknown
1 = Other
2 = Enabled - Indicates that the element is or could be executing commands, will process any queued commands, and queues new requests.
3 = Disabled - Iindicates that the element will not execute commands and will drop any new requests.
4 = Shutting Down - Indicates that the element is in the process of going to a Disabled state.
5 = Not Applicable - Iindicates the element does not support being enabled or disabled.
6 = Enabled but Offline - Indicates that the element may be completing commands, and will drop any new requests.
7 = In Test - Indicates that the element is in a test state.
8 = Deferred - Indicates that the element may be completing commands, but will queue any new requests.
9 = Quiesce - Indicates that the element is enabled but in a restricted mode.
10 = Starting - Indicates that the element is in the process of going to an Enabled state. New requests are queued.
11..32767 = DMTF Reserved
32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
For example, shutting down (value=4) and starting (value=10) are transient states between enabled and disabled.
IPv4Address The IPv4 address that this ProtocolEndpoint represents.
IPv6Address The IPv6 address that this ProtocolEndpoint represents.
IPv6AddressType
Identifies the type of address found in the IPv6Address property. The values of this property is interpreted according to RFC4291, Section 2.4
Possible values are:
2 = Unspecified
3 = Loopback
4 = Multicast
5 = Link Local Unicast
6 = Global Unicast
7 = Embedded IPv4 Address
8 = Site Local Unicast
.. = DMTF Reserved
32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
IPv6SubnetPrefixLength Identifies the prefix length of the IPv6Address property that is used to specify a subnet
IPVersionSupport
This property explicitly defines support for different versions of the IP protocol, for this Endpoint. It is deprecated since the ProtocolIFType also provides this functionality by describing an endpoint as IPv4 only
(value=4096), IPv6 only (value=4097), or IPv4/v6 (value=4098).
Possible values are:
0 = Unknown
1 = IPv4 Only
2 = IPv6 Only
3 = Both IPv4 and IPv6
Name
A string that identifies this ProtocolEndpoint with either a port or an interface on a device. To ensure uniqueness, the Name property should be prepended or appended with information from the Type or
OtherTypeDescription properties. The method selected is described in the NameFormat property of this class.
NameFormat
Contains the naming heuristic that is selected to ensure that the value of the Name property is unique. For example, you may choose to prepend the name of the port or interface with the Type of ProtocolEndpoint (for
example, IPv4) of this instance followed by an underscore.
ProtocolIFType
ProtocolIFType's enumeration is limited to IP-related and reserved values for this subclass of ProtocolEndpoint.
Possible values are:
1 = Other
225..4095 = IANA
Reserved 4096 = IPv4
4097 = IPv6
4098 = IPv4/v6
4301..32767 = DMTF Reserved
32768.. = Vendor Reserved
ProtocolType
This property is deprecated instead of the ProtocolIFType enumeration. This deprecation was done to have better alignment between the IF-MIB of the IETF and this CIM class. Deprecated description: ProtocolType is an
enumeration that provides information to categorize and classify different instances of this class. For most instances, information in this enumeration and the definition of the subclass overlap. However, there are several
cases where a specific subclass of ProtocolEndpoint is not required (for example, there is no Fibre Channel subclass of ProtocolEndpoint). Therefore, this property is needed to define the type of Endpoint.
Possible values are:
0 = Unknown
1 = Other
2 = IPv4
3 = IPv6
4 = IPX
5 = AppleTalk
6 = DECnet
7 = SNA
8 = CONP
9 = CLNP
10 = VINES
11 = XNS
12 = ATM
13 = Frame Relay
14 = Ethernet
15 = TokenRing
16 = FDDI
17 = Infiniband
