Name 
A string that identifies this ProtocolEndpoint with either a port or an interface on a 
device. To ensure uniqueness, the Name property should be prepended or appended 
with information from the Type or OtherTypeDescription properties. The method 
selected is described in the NameFormat property of this class.
NameFormat
Contains the naming heuristic that is selected to ensure that the value of the Name 
property is unique. For example, you may choose to prepend the name of the port or 
interface with the Type of ProtocolEndpoint (for example, IPv4) of this instance followed 
by an underscore.
OtherTypeDescription
A string that describes the type of ProtocolEndpoint when the Type property of this 
class (or any of its subclasses) is set to 1 (Other). This property should be set to null 
when the Type property is any value other than 1.
ProtocolIFType
An enumeration that is synchronized with the IANA ifType MIB. The ifType MIB is 
maintained at the URL, iana.org/assignments/ianaiftype-mib. Also, additional values 
defined by the DMTF are included. The property is used to categorize and classify 
instances of the ProtocolEndpoint class.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 1 = Other
• 2 = Regular 1822
• 3 = HDH 1822
• 4 = DDN X.25
• 5 = RFC877 X.25
• 6 = Ethernet CSMA/CD
• 7 = ISO 802.3 CSMA/CD
• 8 = ISO 802.4 Token Bus
• 9 = ISO 802.5 Token Ring
• 10 = ISO 802.6 MAN
• 11 = StarLAN
• 12 = Proteon 10Mbit
• 13 = Proteon 80Mbit
• 14 = HyperChannel
