Class CIM_RejectConnectionAction
extends CIM_PolicyAction

RejectConnectionAction is used to cause a connection or its negotiation to be terminated. For example, it can be used in conjunction with an address filter on UDP port 500 to reduce Denial of Service vulnerability. As another example, it can be specified as a low priority rule to explicitly define the default action for IKE key exchange negotiations - i.e., if the higher priority rules are not satisfied, then reject the connection negotiation.

Captionstring
DescriptionstringThe Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.None TRANSLATABLE= true

CommonNamestring
DescriptionstringA user-friendly name of this policy-related object.None TRANSLATABLE= true
CreationClassNamestring
DescriptionstringCreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.None TRANSLATABLE= true
KeybooleantrueNone OVERRIDABLE= false
MaxLenuint32256None None
Descriptionstring
DescriptionstringThe Description property provides a textual description of the object.None TRANSLATABLE= true
DoActionLoggingboolean
DescriptionstringDoActionLogging causes a log message to be generated when the action is performed.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ElementNamestring
DescriptionstringA user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name IN ADDITION TO its key properties/identity data, and description information. Note that ManagedSystemElement's Name property is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that 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 MAY be present in both the Name and ElementName properties.None TRANSLATABLE= true
PolicyActionNamestring
DescriptionstringA user-friendly name of this PolicyAction.None TRANSLATABLE= true

MaxLenuint32256None None
PolicyRuleCreationClassNamestring
DescriptionstringFor a rule-specific PolicyAction, the CreationClassName of the PolicyRule object with which this Action is associated. For a reusable PolicyAction, a special value, 'NO RULE', should be used to indicate that this Action is reusable and not associated with a single PolicyRule.None TRANSLATABLE= true
KeybooleantrueNone OVERRIDABLE= false
MaxLenuint32256None None
PolicyRuleNamestring
DescriptionstringFor a rule-specific PolicyAction, the name of the PolicyRule object with which this Action is associated. For a reusable PolicyAction, a special value, 'NO RULE', should be used to indicate that this Action is reusable and not associated with a single PolicyRule.None TRANSLATABLE= true
KeybooleantrueNone OVERRIDABLE= false
MaxLenuint32256None None
SystemCreationClassNamestring
DescriptionstringThe name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of the System object in whose scope this PolicyAction is defined. This property helps to identify the System object in whose scope this instance of PolicyAction exists. For a rule-specific PolicyAction, this is the System in whose context the PolicyRule is defined. For a reusable PolicyAction, this is the instance of PolicyRepository (which is a subclass of System) that holds the Action. Note that this property, and the analogous property SystemName, do not represent propagated keys from an instance of the class System. Instead, they are properties defined in the context of this class, which repeat the values from the instance of System to which this PolicyAction is related, either directly via the PolicyActionInPolicyRepository association or indirectly via the PolicyActionInPolicyRule aggregation.None TRANSLATABLE= true
KeybooleantrueNone OVERRIDABLE= false
MaxLenuint32256None None
SystemNamestring
DescriptionstringThe name of the System object in whose scope this PolicyAction is defined. This property completes the identification of the System object in whose scope this instance of PolicyAction exists. For a rule-specific PolicyAction, this is the System in whose context the PolicyRule is defined. For a reusable PolicyAction, this is the instance of PolicyRepository (which is a subclass of System) that holds the Action.None TRANSLATABLE= true

PolicyKeywordsstring[]
DescriptionstringAn array of keywords for characterizing / categorizing policy objects. Keywords are of one of two types: - Keywords defined in this and other MOFs, or in DMTF white papers. These keywords provide a vendor- independent, installation-independent way of characterizing policy objects. - Installation-dependent keywords for characterizing policy objects. Examples include 'Engineering', 'Billing', and 'Review in December 2000'. This MOF defines the following keywords: 'UNKNOWN', 'CONFIGURATION', 'USAGE', 'SECURITY', 'SERVICE', 'MOTIVATIONAL', 'INSTALLATION', and 'EVENT'. These concepts are self-explanatory and are further discussed in the SLA/Policy White Paper. One additional keyword is defined: 'POLICY'. The role of this keyword is to identify policy-related instances that may not be otherwise identifiable, in some implementations. The keyword 'POLICY' is NOT mutually exclusive of the other keywords specified above.None TRANSLATABLE= true
