connection-less data link service.
DL_HP_RAWDLS
raw-mode service.
DL_ACLDLS
acknowledged connectionless data link service.
Since ATM is a connection-oriented link, the value of this field will
always be DL_CODLS.
dl_qos_length
length, in bytes, of the negotiated/selected values of the quality of
service (QOS) parameters. The returned values are those agreed
during the negotiation. If QOS has not yet been negotiated, default
values will be returned; these values correspond to those that will be
applied by the DLS provider on a connect request.
The QOS values are conveyed in the structures defined in the above
sections in this chapter. For any parameter the DLS provider does not
support or cannot determine, the corresponding entry will be set to
DL_UNKNOWN.
dl_qos_offset
offset from the beginning of the M_PCPROTO block where the
current QOS parameters begin.
dl_qos_range_length
length, in bytes, of the available range of QOS parameter values
supported by the DLS provider. This the range available to the calling
DLS user in a connect request. The range of available QOS values is
conveyed in the structures defined in the following section in this
chapter. For any parameter the DLS provider does not support or
cannot determine, the corresponding entry will be set to
DL_UNKNOWN.
dl_qos_range_offset
offset from the beginning of the M_PCPROTO block where the
available range of quality of service parameters begins.
