CIM_IPProtocolEndpoint

Class reference

Subclass of CIM_ProtocolEndpoint

A ProtocolEndpoint that is dedicated to running IP.

Local properties

uint16 AddressType

An enumeration that describes the format of the Address property. It is deprecated since it is not needed, as the class contains both IPv4 and v6 addresses).

ValueMap Values
0 Unknown
1 IPv4
2 IPv6

string IPv6Address

The IPv6 address that this ProtocolEndpoint represents.

string Address

The IP address that this ProtocolEndpoint represents, formatted according to the appropriate convention as defined in the AddressType property of this class (e.g., 171.79.6.40). This single property is deprecated to replace it by specific IPv4 and v6 addresses.

string SubnetMask

The mask for the IPv4 address of this ProtocolEndpoint, if one is defined.

uint16 IPv6AddressType

IPv6AddressType indentified the type of address found in the IPv6Address property. The values of this property shall be interpreted according to RFC4291, Section 2.4

ValueMap Values
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

uint16 ProtocolIFType

ProtocolIFType’s enumeration is limited to IP-related and reserved values for this subclass of ProtocolEndpoint.

ValueMap Values
1 Other
225..4095 IANA Reserved
4096 IPv4
4097 IPv6
4098 IPv4/v6
4301..32767 DMTF Reserved
32768.. Vendor Reserved

uint16 IPv6SubnetPrefixLength

IPv6SubnetPrefixLength is used to identify the prefix length of the IPv6Address property that is used to specify a subnet

string IPv4Address

The IPv4 address that this ProtocolEndpoint represents.

uint16 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).

ValueMap Values
0 Unknown
1 IPv4 Only
2 IPv6 Only
3 Both IPv4 and IPv6

uint16 AddressOrigin

AddressOrigin identifies the method by which the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway were assigned to the IPProtocolEndpoint.A value of 3 “Static” shall indicate the values were assigned manually. A value of 4 “DHCP” shall indicate the values were assigned utilizing the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. See RFC 2131 and related.

A value of 5 “BOOTP” shall indicate the values were assigned utilizing BOOTP. See RFC 951 and related.

A value of 6 “IPv4 Link Local” shall indicate the values were assigned using the IPv4 Link Local protocol. See RFC 3927.

A value of 7 “DHCPv6” shall indicate the values were assigned using DHCPv6. See RFC 3315.

A value of 8 “IPv6 AutoConfig” shall indicate the values were assinged using the IPv6 AutoConfig Protocol. See RFC 4862.

A value of 9 “Stateless” shall indicate Stateless values were assigned.

A value of 10 “Link Local” shall indicate Link Local values were assigned.

uint8 PrefixLength

The prefix length for the IPv6 address of this Protocol Endpoint, if one is defined.
