association CIM_ActiveConnection : CIM_SAPSAPDependency

Description:

This association defines a connection that is currently communicating, or is configured to communicate, between two ServiceAccessPoints. It is used when the connection is not treated as a ManagedElement itself (that is, with Status, statistics, and so on), but its existence is known. The SAPs that are connected are typically at the same networking or application layer.

Definition:

Feature Type Class Origin Qualifiers
Antecedent CIM_ServiceAccessPoint CIM_Dependency
Override Antecedent
Description A ServiceAccessPoint that is configured to communicate or is actively communicating with the Dependent SAP. In a unidirectional connection, this SAP is the one that is transmitting.
Key TRUE
Dependent CIM_ServiceAccessPoint CIM_Dependency
Override Dependent
Description A second ServiceAccessPoint that is configured to communicate or is actively communicating with the Antecedent SAP. In a unidirectional connection, this SAP is the one that is receiving the communication.
Key TRUE
TrafficType uint16 CIM_ActiveConnection
Deprecated No value
Description Note: The use of this element is deprecated because it is incorrectly placed on the association. Unicast, broadcast, or other traffic types are not a function of the connection between the referenced endpoints, but rather are a function of the addressing, protocol and basic functionality of the endpoints. Deprecated description: The type of traffic that is carried over this connection.

Deprecated No value
Description Note: The use of this element is deprecated because it is incorrectly placed on the association. Unicast, broadcast, or other traffic types are not a function of the connection between the referenced endpoints, but rather are a function of the addressing, protocol and basic functionality of the endpoints. Deprecated description: A string that describes the type of traffic that is being carried over this instance when its Type property is set, for example, to 1 (Other).

IsUnidirectional boolean CIM_ActiveConnection
Description TRUE means that this connection is unidirectional; FALSE means that this connection is bidirectional. When the connection is unidirectional, the "speaker" should be defined as the Antecedent reference. In a bidirectional connection, the selection of which AccessPoint is the Antecedent or Dependent is immaterial.
