Additional MOF description specifications

NOTE

The Brocade subclasses do not automatically override all of the properties in the superclass. The
properties that are not overridden have a null value unless the superclass has a default value that
is defined in the MOF.
When the property in the MOF is defined to be of type sint16, then the equivalent Java type is
java.lang.Short.
