Class CIM_NetworkPacketAction Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Versionstring2.8.0 CIM_NetworkPacketAction
DescriptionstringNetworkPacketAction standardizes different processing options that can be taken at the network packet level. The specific action is defined in the PacketAction enumerated property. Note that this property can be used in conjunction with other actions aggregated into a Rule, to fully define its effects. For example, when aggregated with the SAStaticAction class, NetworkPacketAction indicates whether a specific packet will be encrypted, bypassed or discarded for the lifetime of the Security Association. CIM_NetworkPacketAction
DescriptionstringA class representing a rule-specific or reusable policy action to be performed if the PolicyConditions for a Policy Rule evaluate to TRUE. Since all operational details of a PolicyAction are provided in subclasses of this object, this class is abstract. CIM_PolicyAction
DescriptionstringAn abstract class defining the common properties of the policy managed elements derived from CIM_Policy. The subclasses are used to create rules and groups of rules that work together to form a coherent set of policies within an administrative domain or set of domains. CIM_Policy
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 PacketAction Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringA network packet can be processed, bypassed for processing (i.e., allowed to continue without further processing, such as being forwarded in the clear versus being encrypted), or discarded. This enumeration indicates how a packet should be handled if a PolicyRule ’ s PolicyConditions evaluate to TRUE. CIM_NetworkPacketAction

Property SystemCreationClassName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_PolicyAction
DescriptionstringThe name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of the System object in whose scope this PolicyAction is defined. This property helps to identify the System object in whose scope this instance of PolicyAction exists. For a rule-specific PolicyAction, this is the System in whose context the PolicyRule is defined. For a reusable PolicyAction, this is the instance of PolicyRepository (which is a subclass of System) that holds the Action. Note that this property, and the analogous property SystemName, do not represent propagated keys from an instance of the class System. Instead, they are properties defined in the context of this class, which repeat the values from the instance of System to which this PolicyAction is related, either directly via the PolicyActionInPolicyRepository association or indirectly via the PolicyActionInPolicyRule aggregation.

Property SystemName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_PolicyAction
DescriptionstringThe name of the System object in whose scope this PolicyAction is defined. This property completes the identification of the System object in whose scope this instance of PolicyAction exists. For a rule-specific PolicyAction, this is the System in whose context the PolicyRule is defined. For a reusable PolicyAction, this is the instance of PolicyRepository (which is a subclass of System) that holds the Action. CIM_PolicyAction

Property PolicyRuleCreationClassName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_PolicyAction
DescriptionstringFor a rule-specific PolicyAction, the CreationClassName of the PolicyRule object with which this Action is associated. For a reusable PolicyAction, a special value, ’ NO RULE ’ , should be used to indicate that this Action is reusable and not associated with a single PolicyRule. CIM_PolicyAction
MaxLenuint32256 CIM_PolicyAction

Property PolicyRuleName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_PolicyAction
DescriptionstringFor a rule-specific PolicyAction, the name of the PolicyRule object with which this Action is associated. For a reusable PolicyAction, a special value, ’ NO RULE ’ , should be used to indicate that this Action is reusable and not associated with a single PolicyRule. CIM_PolicyAction
MaxLenuint32256 CIM_PolicyAction

Property CreationClassName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_PolicyAction
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_PolicyAction
MaxLenuint32256 CIM_PolicyAction

Property PolicyActionName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_PolicyAction
DescriptionstringA user-friendly name of this PolicyAction. CIM_PolicyAction
MaxLenuint32256 CIM_PolicyAction

Property DoActionLogging Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringDoActionLogging causes a log message to be generated when the action is performed. CIM_PolicyAction

Property CommonName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringA user-friendly name of this policy-related object. CIM_Policy

Property PolicyKeywords Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringAn array of keywords for characterizing / categorizing policy objects. Keywords are of one of two types: - Keywords defined in this and other MOFs, or in DMTF white papers. These keywords provide a vendor- independent, installation-independent way of characterizing policy objects. - Installation-dependent keywords for characterizing policy objects. Examples include ’ Engineering ’ , ’ Billing ’ , and ’ Review in December 2000 ’ . This MOF defines the following keywords: ’ UNKNOWN ’ , ’ CONFIGURATION ’ , ’ USAGE ’ , ’ SECURITY ’ , ’ SERVICE ’ , ’ MOTIVATIONAL ’ , ’ INSTALLATION ’ , and ’ EVENT ’ . These concepts are self-explanatory and are further discussed in the SLA/Policy White Paper. One additional keyword is defined: ’ POLICY ’ . The role of this keyword is to identify policy-related instances that may not be otherwise identifiable, in some implementations. The keyword ’ POLICY ’ is NOT mutually exclusive of the other keywords specified above. CIM_Policy

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
