Each protocol 'registers' for socket I/O and gets assigned one object of this class.
| ProtoComm (MfeaNode& mfea_node, int ipproto, xorp_module_id module_id)
| ProtoComm |
Constructor for given MFEA node, IP protocol, and module ID (xorp_module_id).
Parameters:
| mfea_node | the MFEA node (MfeaNode) this entry belongs to. |
| ipproto | the IP protocol number (e.g., IPPROTO_PIM for PIM). |
| module_id | the module ID (xorp_module_id) for the protocol. |
| ~ProtoComm ()
| ~ProtoComm |
[virtual]
| int start ()
| start |
Start the ProtoComm.
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int stop ()
| stop |
Stop the ProtoComm.
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int ipproto ()
| ipproto |
[const]
Get the IP protocol number.
Returns: the IP protocol number.
| int proto_socket ()
| proto_socket |
[const]
Get the protocol socket.
The protocol socket is specific to the particular protocol of this entry.
Returns: the socket value if valid, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int open_proto_socket ()
| open_proto_socket |
Open an protocol socket.
The protocol socket is specific to the particular protocol of this entry.
Returns: the socket value on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int close_proto_socket ()
| close_proto_socket |
Close the protocol socket.
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int ip_hdr_include (bool enable_bool)
| ip_hdr_include |
Set/reset the "Header Included" option (for IPv4) on the protocol socket.
If set, the IP header of a raw packet should be created by the application itself, otherwise the kernel will build it. Note: used only for IPv4. In post-RFC-2292, IPV6_PKTINFO has similar functions, but because it requires the interface index and outgoing address, it is of little use for our purpose. Also, in RFC-2292 this option was a flag, so for compatibility reasons we better not set it here; instead, we will use sendmsg() to specify the header's field values.
Parameters:
| enable_bool | if true, set the option, otherwise reset it. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int recv_pktinfo (bool enable_bool)
| recv_pktinfo |
Enable/disable receiving information about some of the fields in the IP header on the protocol socket.
If enabled, values such as interface index, destination address and IP TTL (a.k.a. hop-limit in IPv6), and hop-by-hop options will be received as well. Note: used only for IPv6. In IPv4 we don't have this; the whole IP packet is passed to the application listening on a raw socket.
Parameters:
| enable_bool | if true, set the option, otherwise reset it. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int set_multicast_ttl (int ttl)
| set_multicast_ttl |
Set the default TTL (or hop-limit in IPv6) for the outgoing multicast packets on the protocol socket.
Parameters:
| ttl | the desired IP TTL (a.k.a. hop-limit in IPv6) value. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int set_multicast_loop (bool enable_bool)
| set_multicast_loop |
Set/reset the "Multicast Loop" flag on the protocol socket.
If the multicast loopback flag is set, a multicast datagram sent on that socket will be delivered back to this host (assuming the host is a member of the same multicast group).
Parameters:
| enable_bool | if true, set the loopback, otherwise reset it. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int set_default_multicast_vif (uint16_t vif_index)
| set_default_multicast_vif |
Set default interface for outgoing multicast on the protocol socket.
Parameters:
| vif_index | the vif index of the interface to become the default multicast interface. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int join_multicast_group (uint16_t vif_index, const IPvX& group)
| join_multicast_group |
Join a multicast group on an interface.
Parameters:
| vif_index | the vif index of the interface to join the multicast group. |
| group | the multicast group to join. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| int leave_multicast_group (uint16_t vif_index, const IPvX& group)
| leave_multicast_group |
Leave a multicast group on an interface.
Parameters:
| vif_index | the vif index of the interface to leave the multicast group. |
| group | the multicast group to leave. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| void proto_socket_read (int fd, SelectorMask m)
| proto_socket_read |
Read data from a protocol socket, and then call the appropriate protocol module to process it.
This is called as a SelectorList callback.
Parameters:
| fd | file descriptor that with event caused this method to be called. |
| m | mask representing event type. |
| int proto_socket_write (uint16_t vif_index,
const IPvX& src, const IPvX& dst,
int ip_ttl, int ip_tos,
bool router_alert_bool,
const uint8_t *databuf, size_t datalen)
| proto_socket_write |
Send a packet on a protocol socket.
Parameters:
| vif_index | the vif index of the vif that will be used to send-out the packet. |
| src | the source address of the packet. |
| dst | the destination address of the packet. |
| ip_ttl | the TTL (a.k.a. Hop-limit in IPv6) of the packet. If it has a negative value, the TTL will be set here or by the lower layers. |
| ip_tos | the TOS (a.k.a. Traffic Class in IPv6) of the packet. If it has a negative value, the TOS will be set here or by the lower layers. |
| router_alert_bool | if true, then the IP packet with the data should have the Router Alert option included. |
| databuf | the data buffer. |
| datalen | the length of the data in databuf. |
Returns: XORP_OK on success, otherwise XORP_ERROR.
| void set_ignore_my_packets (bool v)
| set_ignore_my_packets |
Set/reset the flag whether to ignore the receiving my own packets.
Parameters:
| v | if true, ignore my own packets on receiving, otherwise don't ignore them. |
| xorp_module_id module_id ()
| module_id |
[const]
Get the module ID (xorp_module_id) for the protocol that created this entry.
Returns: the module ID (xorp_module_id) of the protocol that created this entry.
Reimplemented from ProtoUnit.
