CIM_UserContact Superclass: CIM_UserEntity
UserContact contains the details related to contacting a user. This information will be promoted to UserEntity in a later major release of CIM, but cannot be promoted at this time since UserEntity is abstract today, with no keys. Key and required properties cannot be added to a class in a minor version release since this breaks backward compatibility.

Parameters (local in grey)
string StateOrProvince ;
The State or Province name property specifies a state or province.
string LocalityName ;
This property contains the name of a locality, such as a city, county or other geographic region.
string Mail ;
Based on RFC1274, the mail box addresses for the person as defined in RFC822.
string PostalAddress [ ] ;
The PostalAddress property values specify the address information required for the physical delivery of postal messages by the postal authority to the person.
MaxLen ( 40 )
string PostalCode ;
The PostalCode property specifies the postal code of the organization. If this value is present it will be part of the object's postal address.
MaxLen ( 1024 )
Key
string Name ;
The Name property defines the label by which the object is known. In the case of an LDAP-derived instance, the Name property value may be set to the distinguished name of the LDAP-accessed object instance.
MaxLen ( 32 )
string TelephoneNumber ;
The TelephoneNumber property specifies a telephone number of the organization, e.g. + 44 582 10101).
string GivenName ;
The Given Name property is used for the part of a person's name that is not their surname nor their middle name (i.e., their first name).
Required
string Surname ;
The Surname property specifies the linguistic construct that normally is inherited by an individual from the individual's parent or assumed by marriage, and by which the individual is commonly known.
string UserID ;
A User ID property. Based on RFC1274, the property may be used to specify a computer system login name.
MaxLen ( 256 )
Key
string CreationClassName ;
CreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
MaxLen ( 64 )
string Caption ;
The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.
string Description ;
The Description property provides a textual description of the object.
string ElementName ;
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information.
Note that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and ElementName properties.
