Endpoint
Each Network contains a sequence of zero or more network endpoints. These endpoints may or
may not also appear in one of the Zones contained by the Network. If an endpoint appears in a
Zone contained by a Network, SPM adds that endpoint to the list of endpoints within the network.
The endpoints in a Network must not appear in any other network, whether managed or
unmanaged.
Name
Each Network has a name represented as a string. This name will be displayed when the network
is imported into SPM. Within a NetworkResource, each Network must have a unique Name.
Network names are case sensitive.
ZoningState
Each Network has a ZoningState, which is of the enumerated type ZoningState. The values involved
may be Open or Zoned.
AddressPattern
Each network contains a sequence of zero or more AddressPattern objects.
Zone
A Zone object describes a zone within a SAN. Its name will be displayed in SPM.

Endpoint
Each Zone contains sequence of zero or more Endpoint objects. Endpoints within a zone may also
appear in the list of Endpoints within the network containing the zone. If an endpoint in a Zone
does not appear in the Network that contains it, SPM adds that endpoint to the list of endpoints
within the network. For more information on Endpoint objects, see
Endpoint .
Name
Each Zone has a name, represented as a string. Zone names must be unique within the network
that contains them.
AddressPattern
Each network contains a sequence of zero or more AddressPattern objects. For more details on
patterns, see
“WWN patterns” (page 88) .
Endpoint
An Endpoint object represents the end point of a connection between a host and a storage device
in a SAN. Networks that contain Endpoint objects cannot be edited within the SPM GUI.
Description Type Property
A value from the NetworkEndpointKind enumeration, indicating the type
of the network. NetworkEndpointKind Kind
A string representing the network address of the endpoint, in a format
appropriate for the network type. String Address
