# Class CIM_Network
extends CIM_AdminDomain

Network is a subclass of AdminDomain that groups interconnected networking and computing objects capable of exchanging information. Instances of CIM_Network can represent an enterprise's global network or specific connectivity domains within the global network. These concepts are similar to those defined for the Network object in ITU's M.3100 specification.
