Class CIM_X509Certificate


  extends CIM_X509Infrastructure
CIM_X509Certificate describes Internet X509 Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) standard based certificates. The certificates are signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA) or by the owner of the certificate and issued to an authenticated entity (e.g., human user, service, etc.) called the Subject in the certificate. The public key in the certificate is cryptographically related to a private key that is held and kept private by the authenticated Subject. The certificate and its related private key can then be used for establishing trust relationships and securing communications with the Subject. Refer to the Internet X.509 PKI standard (RFC 3280) for more information.

NameData TypeValueScopeFlavors
AltSubjectstring
DescriptionstringAlternate subject identifier for the Certificate.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MaxLenuint32256None None
Captionstring
DescriptionstringThe Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MaxLenuint3264None None
Descriptionstring
DescriptionstringThe Description property provides a textual description of the object.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ElementNamestring
DescriptionstringA 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.None TRANSLATABLE= true
EncodedCertificateuint8
DescriptionstringThe full content of the certificate in binary form.None TRANSLATABLE= true
OctetStringbooleantrueNone OVERRIDABLE= false
Expiresdatetime
DescriptionstringThe date and time when the credential expires (and is not appropriate for use for authentication/ authorization). If this information is not applicable, Use a value of '99991231235959.999999+999', (1 microsecond before midnight, December 31, 9999 CE, at coordinated universal time + 999 minutes). On CreateInstance, if this property is unspecified, or set to NULL, then a value of '99991231235959.999999+999' is assumed. Note that this property does not define how the expiration is set - but that there IS an expiration. The property may be set to either a specific date/time or an interval (calculated from the Issued datetime). For example, for Certificate Authority-signed public key, the expiration is determined by the CA. Another example is a voice mail password that expires 60 days after it is set/issued.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ExtendedKeyUsagestring
DescriptionstringThis extension indicates one or more purposes for which the certified public key may be used, in addition to or in place of the basic purposes indicated in the key usage extension.None TRANSLATABLE= true
Generationuint64
DescriptionstringGeneration is an optional, monotonically increasing property that may be used to identify a particular generation of the resource represented by this class. If Generation is supported by the implementation, its value shall not be null. Except as otherwise specified, a value (including null) of Generation specified at creation time shall be replaced by null if Generation is not supported by the implementation or shall be a, (possibly different), non-null value if the implementation does support Generation. After creation and if supported, Generation shall be updated, at least once per access, whenever the represented resource is modified, regardless of the source of the modification. Note: the Generation value only needs to be updated once between references, even if the resource is updated many times. The key point is to assure that it will be different if there have been updates, not to count each update. Note: unless otherwise specified, the value of Generation within one instance is not required to be coordinated with the value of Generation in any other instance. Note:the semantics of the instance, (as defined by its creation class), define the underlying resource. That underlying resource may be a collection or aggregation of resources. And, in that case, the semantics of the instance further define when updates to constituent resources also require updates to the Generation of the collective resource. Default behavior of composite aggregations should be to update the Generation of the composite whenever the Generation of a component is updated. Subclasses may define additional requirements for updates on some or all of related instances. For a particular instance, the value of Generation may wrap through zero, but the elapsed time between wraps shall be greater than 10's of years. This class does not require Generation to be unique across instances of other classes nor across instances of the same class that have different keys. Generation shall be different across power cycles, resets, or reboots if any of those actions results in an update. Generation may be different across power cycles, resets, or reboots if those actions do not result in an update. If the Generation property of an instance is non-null, and if any attempt to update the instance includes the Generation property, then if it doesn't match the current value, the update shall fail. The usage of this property is intended to be further specified by applicable management profiles. Typically, a client will read the value of this property and then supply that value as input to an operation that modifies the instance in some means. This may be via an explicit parameter in an extrinsic method or via an embedded value in an extrinsic method or intrinsic operation. For example: a profile may require that an intrinsic instance modification supply the Generation property and that it must match for the modification to succeed.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ExperimentalbooleantrueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
InstanceIDstring
DescriptionstringWithin the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. In order to ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID SHOULD be constructed using the following 'preferred' algorithm: <OrgID>:<LocalID> Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon ':', and where <OrgID> MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness, <OrgID> MUST NOT contain a colon (':'). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID MUST appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>. <LocalID> is chosen by the organizational entity and SHOULD not be re-used to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above 'preferred' algorithm is not used, the defining entity MUST assure that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this instance's NameSpace. For DMTF defined instances, the 'preferred' algorithm MUST be used with the <OrgID> set to 'CIM'.None TRANSLATABLE= true
