CIM_NetworkPort class
Represents network communications hardware such as a physical connector and the setup or operation of the network CPUs at the lowest layers of a network stack.
Important The DMTF (Distributed Management Task Force) CIM (Common Information Model) classes are the parent classes upon which WMI classes are built. WMI currently supports only the CIM 2.x version schemas.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties.

Properties
The CIM_NetworkPort class has these properties.
ActiveMaximumTransmissionUnit
Data type: uint64
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Units ( "Bytes" )
The active or negotiated maximum transmission unit (MTU) that can be supported.
AdditionalAvailability
Data type: unit16
Access type: Write-only
Additional availability and status of the Device, beyond that specified in the Availability property. The Availability property denotes the primary status and availability of the Device. In some cases, this will not be sufficient to denote the complete status of the Device. In those cases, the AdditionalAvailability property can be used to provide further information. For example, a Device's primary Availability may be Off line (value=8), but it may also be in a low power state (AdditonalAvailability value=14), or the Device could be running Diagnostics (AdditionalAvailability value=5, In Test).
This property inherits from CIM_LogicalDevice.

| Vendor Reserved 0x800 |
DeviceID
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Address or other identifying information to uniquely name the logical device. This property inherits from CIM_LogicalDevice.
ElementName
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
A user-friendly name for the object. This property enables each instance to define a display name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information. Be aware that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a display name. However, it is often subclassed to be a Key. 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. This property inherits from CIM_ManagedElement.
ErrorCleared
Data type: boolean
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Depricated
If TRUE, the error reported in the LastErrorCode property is now cleared. This property inherits from CIM_LogicalDevice.
ErrorDescription

Free-form string that supplies information about the error recorded in the LastErrorCode property and corrective actions to perform. This property inherits from CIM_LogicalDevice.
FullDuplex
Data type: boolean
Access type: Read-only
Boolean that indicates that the port is operating in full duplex mode.
HealthState
Data type: uint16
Access type: Write-only
Indicates the current health of the element. This attribute expresses the health of this element but not necessarily that of its subcomponents. The possible values are 0 to 30, where 5 means the element is entirely healthy and 30 means the element is completely. This property inherits from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unknown 0 | The implementation cannot report on HealthState at this time. |
| OK 5 | The element is fully functional and is operating within normal operational parameters and without error. |
| Degraded/Warning 10 | The element is in working order and all functionality is provided. However, the element is not working to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not be operating at optimal performance or it might be reporting recoverable errors. |
| Minor Failure 15 | All functionality is available but some might be degraded. |
| Major Failure 20 | The element is failing. It is possible that some or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or not working. |
| Critical Failure 25 | The element is non-functional and recovery might not be possible. |
| Non-recoverable Error 30 | The element has completely failed, and recovery is not possible. All functionality provided by this element has been lost. |
| Reserved ... | The remaining values are reserved for DTMF use. |
IdentifyingDescriptions
Data type: string array
Access type: Read-only
An array of free-form strings providing explanations and details behind the entries in the OtherIdentifyingInfo array. Note, each entry of this array is related to the entry in OtherIdentifyingInfo that is located at the same index. This property inherits from CIM_LogicalDevice.
InstallDate
Data type: datetime
Access type: Read-only
Indicates when the object was installed. Lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed. This property inherits from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
InstanceId
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. To ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed using the following "preferred" algorithm: OrgID:LocalID Where OrgID and LocalID are separated by a colon (:), and where OrgID must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or defining the InstanceID or that is a registered ID assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This requirement is similar to the SchemaName_ClassName structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness, OrgID must not contain a colon (:). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID must appear between OrgID and LocalID. LocalID is chosen by the business entity and should not be reused to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above preferred algorithm is not used, the defining entity must assure that the resulting InstanceID is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for the NameSpace of this instance. For DMTF-defined instances, the "preferred" algorithm must be used with the OrgID set to CIM. This property inherits from CIM_ManagedElement.
LastErrorCode
Data type: uint32
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Depricated
Last error code reported by the logical device. This property inherits from CIM_LogicalDevice.

MaxQuiesceTime
Data type: uint64
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Depricated
Maximum time in milliseconds, that a Device can run in a Quiesced state. A Device's state is defined in its Availability and AdditionalAvailability properties, where Quiesced is conveyed by the value 21. What occurs at the end of the time limit is device-specific. The Device may unquiesce, may offline or take other action. A value of 0 indicates that a Device can remain quiesced indefinitely.
Note
"The MaxQuiesceTime property has been deprecated. When evaluating the use of Quiesce, it was determine that this single property is not adequate for describing when a device will automatically exit a quiescent state. In fact, the most likely scenario for a device to exit a quiescent state was determined to be based on the number of outstanding requests queued rather than on a maximum time. This will be re-evaluated and repositioned later.
This property inherits from CIM_LogicalDevice.
MaxSpeed
Data type: uint64
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Units ( "Bits per Second" )
The maximum bandwidth, in bits per second, of the port. This property inherits from CIM_LogicalPort.
Name

Data type: string array
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: MaxLen ( 64)
An array of strings that indicates the network addresses for the port.
OperatingStatus
Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only
Provides a current status value for the operational condition of the element and can be used for providing more detail with respect to the value of EnabledState. It can also provide the transitional states when an element is transitioning from one state to another, such as when an element is transitioning between EnabledState and RequestedState, as well as other transitional conditions. This property inherits from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

|---|---|
| Unknown 0 | the implementation is in general capable of returning this property, but is unable to do so at this time. |
| Not Available 1 | the implementation (provider) is capable of returning a value for this property, but not ever for this particular piece of hardware/software or the property is intentionally not used because it adds no meaningful information (as in the case of a property that is intended to add additional info to another property). |
| Servicing 2 | describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered. Starting describes an element being initialized. \n\"Stopping\" describes an element being brought to an orderly stop. |
| Starting 3 | The element is starting. |
| Stopping 4 | The element is stopping. |
| Stopped 5 | A a clean and orderly stop has occurred. |
| Aborted 6 | An abrupt stop has occurred; the state and configuration of the element might need to be updated. |
| Dormant 7 | The element is inactive or quiesced. |
| Completed 8 | The element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded in the PrimaryStatus so that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error). |
| Migrating 9 | The element is being moved between host elements. |
| Emigrating 10 | The element is being moved away from host element. |
| Immigrating 11 | The element is being moved to new host element. |
| Snapshotting 12 | |
| Shutting Down 13 | The element being brought to an abrupt stop. |
| In Test 14 | The element is performing test functions. |
| Transitioning 15 | The element is between states, that is, it is not fully available in either its previous state or its next state. This value should be used if other values indicating a transition to a specific state are not applicable. |
| In Service 16 | The element is in service and operational." |
| DTMF Reserved .. | |
| Vendor Reserved 0x800 |
OperationalStatus
Data type: uint16
Access type: Write-only
The current statuses of the element. This property inherits from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unknown 0 | An unknown error has occured. |
| Other 1 | An error other than one on this list has occured. |
| OK 2 | The elemetn is OK. |
| Degraded 3 | The element has been degraded. |
| Stressed 4 | The element is functioning, but needs attention. Examples of Stressed states are overload, overheated, and so on. |
| Predictive Failure 5 | An element is functioning nominally but predicting a failure in the near future. |
| Error 6 | An error has occurred. |
| Non-Recoverable Error 7 | A non-recoverable error has occurred. |
| Starting 8 | The element is in the process of starting. |
| Stopping 9 | The element is in the process of stopping. |
| Stopped 10 | A clean and orderly stop has occurred. |
| In Service 11 | An element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered. |
| No Contact 12 | The monitoring system has knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications with it. |
| Lost Communication 13 | The Managed System Element is known to exist and has been contacted successfully in the past, but is currently unreachable. |
| Aborted 14 | An abrupt stop has occurred; the state and configuration of the element might need to be updated. |
| Dormant 15 | The element is inactive or quiesced. |
| Supporting Entity in Error 16 | The current element might be OK, but that another element, on which it is dependent, is in error. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking problems. |
| Completed 17 | the element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded so that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error) |
| Power Mode 18 | The element has additional power model information contained in the Associated PowerManagementService association. |
| Relocating 19 | indicates the element is being relocated. OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array property, and to provide a migration path from today\'s environment to the future. This change was not made earlier because it required the deprecated qualifier. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status property in management applications, it is strongly recommended that providers or instrumentation provide both the Status and OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of OperationalStatus should contain the primary status for the element. When instrumented, Status (because it is single-valued) should also provide the primary status of the element. |
