CIM_BindsTo class

Represents an association where a CIM_ServiceAccessPoint object requests protocol services from a CIM_ProtocolEndpoint object.

This association usually runs between service access points and endpoints on the same system. Because a CIM_ProtocolEndpoint is a kind of CIM_ServiceAccessPoint, this binding can be used to establish a layering of two protocols, where the upper layer is represented by the Dependent property and the lower layer is represented by the Antecedent property.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.
