# Class CIM_IPSubnet
extends CIM_LogicalNetwork

An IPSubnet represents a group of related IPProtocolEndpoints that can communicate with each other directly using IP. It is used for describing the characteristics of the grouping. Since this class' superclass (LogicalNetwork) has been deprecated (in order to define more consistent 'collection' semantics), this class is also deprecated.
