CIM_LANEndpoint class

A communication endpoint that can connect to a LAN to send and receive data frames. LAN endpoints include ethernet, token Ring, and FDDI interfaces.

class CIM_LANEndpoint : CIM_ProtocolEndpoint
{
  string LANID;
  uint16 LANType;

  string GroupAddresses[];
  uint32 MaxDataSize;
};

Members

The CIM_LANEndpoint class has these types of members:

• Properties

Properties

The CIM_LANEndpoint class has these properties.

AliasAddresses

Data type: string array

Access type: Read-only

An array that contains other unicast addresses that may be used to communicate with the LAN endpoint.

GroupAddresses

Data type: string array

Access type: Read-only

An array that contains the multicast addresses to which the LAN endpoint listens.

LANID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_LANConnectivitySegment.LANID, CIM_LANSegment.LANID")

A label or identifier for the LAN segment to which the endpoint is connected. If the endpoint is not currently connected or if this information is unknown, then LANID is NULL.

LANType

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Deprecated ("CIM_ProtocolEndpoint.ProtocolType"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_LANConnectivitySegment.ConnectivityType, CIM_LANSegment.LANType")

Note

Deprecated description: The kind of technology used on the LAN.

This property is deprecated. Instead we recommend that you use the ProtocolType property.

Unknown (0)

Other (1)

Ethernet (2)

TokenRing (3)

FDDI (4)

MACAddress

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (12)

The principal unicast address used by the LAN endpoint.

The MAC address must be formatted with the following characteristics:

• The address consists of twelve hexadecimal digits.
• Each pair of digits represents one of the six octets of the MAC address.
• Each pair of digits must be in canonical bit order according to RFC 2469.

MaxDataSize

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Units ("Bits")

The maximum size, in bytes, of data fields sent or received by the LAN endpoint.

OtherLANType

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Deprecated ("CIM_ProtocolEndpoint.OtherTypeDescription"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_LANConnectivitySegment.OtherTypeDescription", "CIM_LANEndpoint.LANType")

Note

Deprecated description: The type of technology used on the LAN when the LANType property is set to "1" (Other).

This property is deprecated. Instead we recommend that you use the OtherTypeDescription property.
