Errata exists for this version of the document.
This is a subtype of the UInt32 DataType with the OptionSetValues Property defined. It is used to define the Attribute access restrictions of a Node. The AttributeWriteMask is formally defined in Table 43.
If a bit is set to 0, it means the Attribute is not writable. If a bit is set to 1, it means it is writable. If a Node does not support a specific Attribute, the corresponding bit has to be set to 0.

IsAbstract |
11 |
Indicates if the IsAbstract Attribute is writable. |
MinimumSamplingInterval |
12 |
Indicates if the MinimumSamplingInterval Attribute is writable. |
NodeClass |
13 |
Indicates if the NodeClass Attribute is writable. |
NodeId |
14 |
Indicates if the NodeId Attribute is writable. |
Symmetric |
15 |
