Namestring
DescriptionstringA string which identifies this ProtocolEndpoint with either a port or an interface on a device. To ensure uniqueness, the Name property should be prepended or appended with information from the Type or OtherTypeDescription properties. The method chosen is described in the NameFormat property of this class.None TRANSLATABLE= true
KeybooleantrueNone OVERRIDABLE= false
MaxLenuint32256None None
OverridestringNameNone OVERRIDABLE= false
NameFormatstring
DescriptionstringNameFormat contains the naming heuristic that is chosen to ensure that the value of the Name property is unique. For example, one might choose to prepend the name of the port or interface with the Type of ProtocolEndpoint that this instance is (e.g., IPv4)followed by an underscore.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MaxLenuint32256None None
OtherTypeDescriptionstring
DescriptionstringA string describing the type of ProtocolEndpoint that this instance is when the Type property of this class (or any of its subclasses) is set to 1 (e.g., 'Other'). The format of the string inserted in this property should be similar in format to the values defined for the Type property. This property should be set to NULL when the Type property is any value other than 1.None TRANSLATABLE= true
