NameTypeValueFrom Class
DeprecatedstringCIM_EndpointIdentity CIM_Switchable
Versionstring2.7.0 CIM_Switchable
DescriptionstringA switch port has a LANEndpoint that is exposed via this relationship. The associaiton is deprecated since a binding is not the correct relationship. The SwitchPort is simply another aspect of the LANEndpoint - which is indicated by the EndpointIdentity relationship. CIM_Switchable
Associationbooleantrue CIM_Switchable
DescriptionstringThis association makes explicit the dependency of a SAP or ProtocolEndpoint on an underlying LANEndpoint, on the same system. CIM_BindsToLANEndpoint
Associationbooleantrue CIM_BindsToLANEndpoint
DescriptionstringThis association establishes a ServiceAccessPoint as a requestor of protocol services from a ProtocolEndpoint. Typically, this association runs between SAPs and endpoints on a single system. Since a ProtocolEndpoint is a kind of ServiceAccessPoint, this binding can be used to establish a layering of two protocols, the upper layer represented by the Dependent and the lower layer represented by the Antecedent. CIM_BindsTo
Associationbooleantrue CIM_BindsTo
DescriptionstringCIM_SAPSAPDependency is an association between a Service AccessPoint and another ServiceAccessPoint indicating that the latter is required in order for the former ServiceAccess Point to utilize or connect with its Service. For example, to print at a network printer, local Print Access Points must utilize underlying network-related SAPs, or ProtocolEndpoints, in order to send the print request. CIM_SAPSAPDependency
Associationbooleantrue CIM_SAPSAPDependency
Associationbooleantrue CIM_Dependency
DescriptionstringCIM_Dependency is a generic association used to establish dependency relationships between ManagedElements. CIM_Dependency
