An instance of CIM_IndicationFilter describes the set of indications of interest by means of a query expression. This is also called the desired indication stream. The most relevant properties of CIM_IndicationFilter are:

• Name, CreationClassName, SystemName, SystemCreationClassName - key properties.

• DeliveryRetryAttempts defines the maximum number of delivery retries.
