Property Description
different scoping container. Therefore, the key for Physical Element
is an arbitrary string and is defined independently of any placement
or location-oriented hierarchy.
VendorCompatibilityStrings
An array of strings that identify the components that are compatible
and can be inserted in a slot. This allows vendors to provide clues
to the system administrators by providing sufficient information to
request the appropriate hardware that can populate the slot. To
ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, each value defined by
the vendor for use in the VendorCompatibilityStrings property
SHOULD be constructed using the following 'preferred' algorithm: :
Where and are separated by a colon ':', and where MUST include a
copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned
by the business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a
registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized
global authority (This is similar to the _ structure of Schema class
names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness MUST NOT contain a
colon ':'. When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in
InstanceID MUST appear between and . is chosen by the business
entity and SHOULD not be re-used to identify different underlying
(real-world) elements.
DCIM_SerialPort
Property Description
BaseIOAddress
An integer value that represents the base I/O address used by the serial port. Caption
The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.
ConnectorType
ConnectorType is defined to force consistent naming of the 'connector type' property in
subclasses and to guarantee unique enum values for all instances of SerialPort. When
set to 1 ("Other"), related property OtherConnectorType contains a string description of
the type of port. A range of values, DMTF_Reserved, has been defined that allows
subclasses to override and define their specific types of ports.
Possible values are:
0 = Unknown
1 = Other
2 = Not Applicable
3..15999 = DMTF Reserved
16003 = DB9Male
16004 = DB9Female
16005 = DB25Male1
16006 = DB25Female1
16007 = RJ11
16008 = RJ45
16009 = Proprietary
16010 = CircularDIN8Male
16011 = CircularDIN8Female
16160 = MiniCentronicsType14
16161 = MiniCentronicsType26
16162..65535 = Vendor Reserved
