For example, one may " "describe the maximum number of VLANs that can be supported on " "a system using a subclass of Capabilities. Capabilities are " "tied to the elements which they describe using the " "ElementCapabilities association. Note that the cardinality of " "the ManagedElement reference is Min(1), Max(1). This " "cardinality mandates the instantiation of the " "ElementCapabilities association for the referenced instance of " "Capabilities. ElementCapabilities describes the existence " "requirements and context for the referenced instance of " "ManagedElement. Specifically, the ManagedElement MUST exist " "and provides the context for the Capabilities. Note that " "Capabilities do not indicate what IS configured or " "operational, but what CAN or CANNOT exist, be defined or be " "used.
