# Class CIM_ConnectivityCollection
extends CIM_SystemSpecificCollection

A ConnectivityCollection groups together a set of ProtocolEndpoints of the same 'type' (i.e., class) which are able to communicate with each other. It may also group related Systems, users or other ManagedElements. A ConnectivityCollection represents the ability to send and/or receive data over a set of ProtocolEndpoints. The collection is defined in the context of an AdminDomain or scoping ComputerSystem. This is mandated by the Hosted Collection association on the SystemSpecificCollection superclass. Note that the entities aggregated into the Collection are specified using the association, MemberOfCollection.

### Local Class Properties

Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | Data Type | Value
ConnectivityStatus | uint16 |
Description | string | An enumeration describing the current or potential connectivity between endpoints in this collection. Connectivity may be provided or not, or may be in a degraded/partitioned state if one or more endpoints or links have failed. The latter would prevent full connectivity between all elements in the Collection, but would permit connectivity between subsets.
ValueMap | string | 0, 2, 3, 4
Values | string | Unknown, Connectivity/Up, No Connectivity/Down, Partitioned
