### Local Class Properties

Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | Data Type | Value
ControllerType | uint16 |
Description | string | The type or model of the port controller. Specific values will be enumerated in a later release of this schema. When set to 1 ("Other"), the related property OtherControllerType contains a string description of the type of the controller.
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_PortController.OtherControllerType
ValueMap | string | 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Values | string | Unknown, Other, Ethernet, IB, FC, FDDI, ATM, Token Ring, Frame Relay
ControllerVersion | uint16 |
Description | string | The revision number of the controller.
OtherControllerType | string |
Description | string | A string value for controller types that is not captured by the ControllerType enumeration. This property should be used only when the value of the ControllerType property is set to 1, "Other".
