MSiSCSI_SecurityCapabilities WMI Class

  • Article

The MSiSCSI_SecurityCapabilities WMI class describes the security capabilities of an initiator.

A miniport driver must implement the MSiSCSI_SecurityCapabilities class if the HBA it manages supports IPsec.

Because the MSiSCSI_SecurityCapabilities class is associated with a particular instance of a storage miniport driver, the miniport driver must register the class using the name of the particular physical device object (PDO) that the miniport driver manages.

The MSiSCSI_SecurityCapabilities class is defined in Config.mof.

class MSiSCSI_SecurityCapabilities {
  [key] string  InstanceName;
  boolean  Active;
  [read, DisplayName("Protect iSCSI") : amended, 
    WmiDataId(1), description("TRUE if the HBA can use IPsec 
    to protect iSCSI traffic") : amended]
    boolean  ProtectiScsiTraffic;
  [read, WmiDataId(2), DisplayName("Protect iSNS") : 
    amended, description("TRUE if the HBA can use IPsec to 
    protect iSNS traffic") : amended] 
    boolean  ProtectiSNSTraffic;
  [read, WmiDataId(3), DisplayName("Certificates Supported") 
    : amended, description("TRUE if HBA supports 
    certificates") : amended] 
    boolean  CertificatesSupported;
  [read, WmiDataId(4), DisplayName("Encryption Types 
    Available") : amended, description("Count of encryption 
    types available")] 
    uint32  EncryptionAvailableCount;
  [read, WmiDataId(5), 
    WmiSizeIs("EncryptionAvailableCount"), 
    ENCRYPTION_TYPES_QUALIFIERS, DisplayName("Encryption 
    Types") : amended] 
    uint32  EncryptionAvailable[];
};

When the WMI tool suite compiles the preceding class definition, it produces the MSiSCSI_SecurityCapabilities data structure.
