It was determined that a " "VLAN service was not needed. VLANService represents the VLAN " "aspects of the function performed by a switch. Some VLAN-aware " "devices participate in protocols where VLAN information is " "propagated among switches, e.g., GVRP in 802.1Q switches and " "VTP in Cisco Catalyst switches. VLANService also represents " "the function performed by the switch as a participant in such " "a protocol. VLANService must be subclassed so that the type of " "instance can be distinguished by its class." )] class CIM_VLANService : CIM_Service { };
