CIM_USBDevice class (CIMWin32 WMI Providers)

  • Article

The CIM_USBDevice class represents the management characteristics of a USB device.

Important

The DMTF (Distributed Management Task Force) CIM (Common Information Model) classes are the parent classes upon which WMI classes are built. WMI currently supports only the CIM 2.x version schemas.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of its inherited properties. Properties are listed in alphabetic order, not MOF order.
