| _protection |
Indicates protection status of this resource
Protection status is one of the following:
PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed
to modify it.
NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed
to modify it
REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super
user and can modify it, but only when providing
the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true.
UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this
entity.

| _revision |
Generation of this resource config
The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected. |

| category |
A way to classify a communication map, if needed.
- Distributed Firewall -
Policy framework for Distributed Firewall provides four pre-defined
categories for classifying a communication map. They are
"Emergency", "Infrastructure", "Environment" and "Application".
Amongst the layer 3 communication maps,there is a pre-determined
order in which the policy framework manages the priority of these
communication maps. Emergency category has the highest priority
followed by Infrastructure, Environment and then Application rules.
Administrator can choose to categorize a communication map into the
above categories or can choose to leave it empty. If empty it will
have the least precedence w.r.t the above four layer 3 categories.

| marked_for_delete |
Indicates whether the intent object is marked for deletion
Intent objects are not directly deleted from the system when a delete
is invoked on them. They are marked for deletion and only when all the
realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object
is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in
GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects.

Default: "False" |
| overridden |
Indicates whether this object is the overridden intent object
Global intent objects cannot be modified by the user.
However, certain global intent objects can be overridden locally by use
of this property. In such cases, the overridden local values take
precedence over the globally defined values for the properties.

| precedence |
Precedence to resolve conflicts across Domains
This field is used to resolve conflicts between communication maps
across domains. In order to change the precedence of a communication
map one can fire a POST request on the communication map entity with
a query parameter action=revise
The precedence field will reflect the value of the computed precedence
upon execution of the above mentioned POST request.
For scenarios where the administrator is using a template to update
several communication maps, the only way to set the precedence is to
explicitly specify the precedence number for each communication map.
If no precedence is specified in the payload, a value of 0 is
assigned by default. If there are multiple communication maps with
the same precedence then their order is not deterministic. If a
specific order of communication map is desired, then one has to
specify a unique precedence or use the POST request on the
communication map entity with a query parameter action=revise to let
the framework assign a precedence

| realization_id |
A unique identifier assigned by the system for realizing intent
This is a UUID generated by the system for realizing the entity object.
In most cases this should be same as 'unique_id' of the entity. However,
in some cases this can be different because of entities have migrated thier
unique identifier to NSX Policy intent objects later in the timeline and did
not use unique_id for realization. Realization id is helpful for users to
debug data path to correlate the configuration with corresponding intent.
