Experimentalbooleantrue CIM_MPLSBuffers
Versionstring2.8.1000 CIM_MPLSBuffers
DescriptionstringMPLSBuffers represents buffer resources supporting Label Switch Routers (LSRs) and MPLS interfaces on these LSRs. CIM_MPLSBuffers
DescriptionstringThis class represents the use of buffers by a Queuing Service. The existence and management of individual buffers will be modeled in a future release. At the current level of abstraction, modeling the existence of the BufferPool is necessary. Long term, it is not sufficient. In implementations where there are multiple buffer sizes, an instance of BufferPool should be defined for each set of buffers with identical or similar sizes. These instances of buffer pools can then be grouped together using the CollectedBuffersPool association. Note that this class is derived from CollectionOfMSEs, and not from Forwarding or ConditioningService. BufferPool is only a collection of storage, and is NOT a Service. CIM_BufferPool
DescriptionstringThe CollectionOfMSEs object allows the grouping of Managed SystemElements for various identification purposes and to reduce the complexity of associating Settings and Configurations. It is abstract to require further definition and semantic refinement in subclasses. The CollectionOfMSEs object does not carry any state or status information, but represents only a grouping or ’ bag ’ of Elements. For this reason, it is incorrect to subclass groups that have state or status from CollectionOfMSEs. An example is CIM_Redundancy Group (which is subclassed from LogicalElement). Collections typically aggregate similar ( ’ like ’ ) objects, but they are not required to do so. Collections simply identify ’ bags ’ and might represent an optimization. This purpose is especially true with respect to their association to Settings and Configurations. Without Collections, you would need to define individual ElementSetting and ElementConfiguration associations, to tie Settings and Configuration objects to individual ManagedSystemElements. There might be duplication when assigning the same Setting to multiple objects. In addition, using the Collection object allows the determination that the Setting and Configuration associations are indeed the same for the Collection ’ s members. This information would otherwise be obtained by defining the Collection in a proprietary manner, and then querying the ElementSetting and ElementConfiguration associations to determine if the Collection set is completely covered. CIM_CollectionOfMSEs
DescriptionstringCollection is an abstract class that provides a common superclass for data elements that represent collections of ManagedElements and its subclasses. CIM_Collection
DescriptionstringManagedElement is an abstract class that provides a common superclass (or top of the inheritance tree) for the non-association classes in the CIM Schema. CIM_ManagedElement

Property Qualifiers

Property MaxAllocMultiplier Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe maximum allocation multiplier (MAM) determines the proportion of the buffer resource that is available for allocation to MPLS tunnels/traffic trunks. The value of the MAM can be chosen so that a resource can be under-allocated or over-allocated. A resource is said to be under-allocated if the aggregate demands of all traffic trunks that can be allocated to it are always less than the capacity of the resource. A resource is said to be over-allocated if the aggregate demands of all traffic trunks allocated to it can exceed the capacity of the resource. CIM_MPLSBuffers

Property ResourceClasses Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThis property describes the resource classes to which a buffer resource belongs. ResourceClasses is defined as a 32-bit vector, and the classes are described in [RFC2702]. In general, a resource can be assigned to more than one resource class, since the classes are coded in the individual bits of the property. Resource classes can be used to implement a variety of policies. From a Traffic Engineering perspective, they can be used to implement policies with regard to both traffic and resource oriented performance optimization. For example, resource class attributes can specify the relative preference of sets of resources for path placement of traffic trunks; explicitly restrict the placement of traffic trunks to specific subsets of resources; etc. CIM_MPLSBuffers

Property CollectionID Qualifiers

OverridestringCollectionID CIM_BufferPool
DescriptionstringThis property is defined in the CollectionOfMSEs class, but is overridden here to serve as part of the (composite) key that identifies the BufferPool instance. CIM_BufferPool
MaxLenuint32256 CIM_BufferPool

Property CreationClassName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_BufferPool
DescriptionstringCreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified. CIM_BufferPool

Property Name Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe Name property defines the label by which the object is known. CIM_BufferPool
MaxLenuint32256 CIM_BufferPool

Property BufferSize Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThis property is a 16-bit unsigned integer, and defines the number of bytes in each buffer. It is deprecated in lieu of a similar uint32 property. CIM_BufferPool
UnitsstringBytes CIM_BufferPool

Property SizeOfBuffers Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThis property is a 32-bit unsigned integer, and defines the number of bytes in each buffer. CIM_BufferPool
UnitsstringBytes CIM_BufferPool

Property TotalBuffers Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThis property is a 32-bit unsigned integer, and defines the total number of buffers in the Pool. CIM_BufferPool

Property AvailableBuffers Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThis property is a 32-bit unsigned integer, and defines the number of buffers in the Pool that are currently not allocated to any instance of a QueuingService. Buffers allocated to a QueuingService could either be in use (containing packet data), or allocated to a Queue pending the arrival of new packet data. CIM_BufferPool

Property SharedBuffers Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThis property is a 32-bit unsigned integer, and defines the number of buffers in the Pool that have been simultaneously allocated to multiple instances of QueuingService. CIM_BufferPool

Property CollectionID Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe identification of the Collection object. When subclassed, the CollectionID property can be overridden to be a Key property. CIM_CollectionOfMSEs
MaxLenuint32256 CIM_CollectionOfMSEs

Property Caption Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object. CIM_ManagedElement
MaxLenuint3264 CIM_ManagedElement

Property Description Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe Description property provides a textual description of the object. CIM_ManagedElement

Property ElementName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringA user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information. Note that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey both identity and a user-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. CIM_ManagedElement
