# Class CIM_NetworkPacketAction
extends CIM_PolicyAction

NetworkPacketAction standardizes different processing options that can be taken at the network packet level. The specific action is defined in the PacketAction enumerated property. Note that this property can be used in conjunction with other actions aggregated into a Rule, to fully define its effects. For example, when aggregated with the SAStaticAction class, NetworkPacketAction indicates whether a specific packet will be encrypted, bypassed or discarded for the lifetime of the Security Association.

This enumeration indicates how a packet should be handled if a PolicyRule's PolicyConditions evaluate to TRUE.
