CIM Elements

The following table describes the CIM elements used to implement the Network Administration feature.

Cardinality

Classes

AMT_GeneralSettings

General AMT settings, including network settings.

Static

1

CIM_EthernetPort

The instances represent the LAN port and the wireless LAN port. It is used for IPv4 settings for these ports, as it is connected to AMT_EthernetPortSettings.

Static

0,1-2, depending on whether wireless is available on the platform and configured.

AMT_EthernetPortSettings

IPv4 and some general Ethernet port settings.

Static

0, 1-2, depending on whether wireless is available on the platform and configured (one per CIM_EthernetPort).

IPS_HostIPSettings

Host IP settings used to synchronize Intel AMT to the host static IP.

Static

1 (for wired ethernet port)

IPS_IPv6PortSettings

 

IPv6 settings for an Ethernet port. Important note: This class is connected to the wired CIM_EthernetPort for setting IPv6 on it, but not to the wireless CIM_EthernetPort.

For configuring IPv6 port settings for wireless, this class is connected to CIM_WiFiPort.

Static

Assuming platform supports IPv6: 1-2 depending on whether wireless is available on the platform (one for CIM_EthernetPort, another for CIM_WiFiPort).

CIM_WiFiPort

Represents the WiFi port, used for certain settings. In the context of network administration, it is used for IPv6 settings for the wireless port, as it is connected to IPS_IPv6PortSettings.

Static

1 if wireless is available on the platform.

0 if wireless is not available on the platform.

AMT_WiFiPortConfigurationService

AMT_WiFiPortConfigurationService provides management of the Wi-Fi network interfaces associated with a Wi-Fi network port.

Static

1 if wireless is available on the platform.

0 if wireless is not available on the platform.

Associations

CIM_ElementSettingData

 

Connects EthernetPortSettings or IPv6PortSettings to the EthernetPort and WiFiPort.

Static

*

CIM_SystemDevice

Connects the CIM_EthernetPort to the Intel AMT Computer System.

Static

1

CIM_HostedService

Connects the WiFiPortConfigurationService to the Intel AMT Computer System host.

Static

1 if wireless is available on the platform.

0 if wireless is not available on the platform.

CIM_ServiceAffectsElement

Connects the WiFiPortConfigurationService to the WiFi port.

Static

1 if wireless is available on the platform.

0 if wireless is not available on the platform.

* Multiple instances

** Instance Creation:

     Implicit: Instances created implicitly by Intel AMT in response to a user CIM operation

     Static: Instances created by Intel AMT on initialization

     User: The class supports create/delete
