# Class CIM_LimitedAccessPort
extends CIM_MediaTransferDevice

LimitedAccessPorts represent hardware that transports Physical Media into or out of a System, such as a StorageLibrary. They are identified as 'limited' since these Ports do not provide access to ALL the PhysicalMedia or StorageMediaLocations in a Library, but only to a subset.

## Class Properties

### Local Class Properties

Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | Data Type | Value
Direction | uint16 |
Description | string | An enumeration expressing whether the Port is used for import into the Library/System which scopes and names it (value=1), export from the Library/System (value=2), or both (value=3).
ValueMap | string | 0, 1, 2, 3
Values | string | Unknown, Import, Export, Both Import and Export
ExportCount | uint64 |
Counter | boolean | true
Description | string | The number of times that the LimitedAccessPort was used to move a PhysicalMedia out of the System/StorageLibrary.
Extended | boolean |
Description | string | When a Port is 'Extended' or 'open' (value=TRUE), its Storage MediaLocations are accessible to a human operator. If not extended (value=FALSE), the Locations are accessible to a PickerElement.
ExtendTimeout | uint32 |
Description | string | When a LimitedAccessPort is 'Extended', all related media- transfer componentry may be stopped. The ExtendTimeout property provides a mechanism to event on a Port left open for a period of time (in seconds) exceeding the property's value.
PUnit | string | second
Units | string | Seconds
ImportCount | uint64 |
Counter | boolean | true
Description | string | The number of times that the LimitedAccessPort was used to move a PhysicalMedia into the System/StorageLibrary.
LastExtended | datetime |
Description | string | Date and time that the Port was last extended.
Locked | boolean |
Description | string | Boolean indicating that the Port is 'locked' (TRUE) or 'unlocked' (FALSE). When the Port is locked, access its Media Locations is prevented without the use of a physical key, front panel activity or the issuance of a software unlock command.
