NOF API Verbs
DEFINE_NODE
Specifies the time in seconds before a network search will timeout. Specify zero for no timeout.
cp_create_parms.reg_with_nn
Specifies whether to register the node’s resources with the network node server when the node is started.
Note that the valid values for this parameter are different depending on whether the node is an End Node or
a Branch Network Node.If the local node is a Network Node or a LEN Node, this parameter is reserved.
Possible values for End Node:
AP_YES
Register resources with the NN. The end node’s network node server will only forward directed locates
to it.
AP_NO
Do not register resources. The network node server will forward all broadcast searches to the end node.
Possible values for Branch Network Node:
AP_REGISTER_NONE
The local node does not register any LUs with the NN Server. The NN Server will forward all broadcast
searches to the branch network node.
AP_REGISTER_ALL
The local node registers all domain independent LUs with the NN Server; it also registers all local
dependent LUs if the NN Server supports option set 1116. The NN Server will only forward directed
locates to it (unless it owns dependent LUs that could not be registered).
AP_REGISTER_LOCAL_ONLY
The local node registers all local independent LUs with the NN Server; it also registers all local
dependent LUs if the NN Server supports option set 1116. The NN Server will forward all broadcast
searches to the branch network node.
cp_create_parms.reg_with_cds
End node: Specifies whether the network node server is allowed to register end node resources with a Central
Directory server. This field is ignored if
reg_with_nn is set to AP_NO.
Network node: Specifies whether local or domain resources can be optionally registered with Central Directory
server.
Possible values are:
AP_YES
Register resources with the CDS.
AP_NO
Do not register resources.
Branch network node: Specifies whether BrNN resources (local to the Branch Network Node or from its
domain) can be registered with Central Directory Server by the Network Server. This field is ignored if
reg_with_nn is set to AP_REGISTER_NONE.
Possible values are:
AP_YES
Register resources with the CDS.
AP_NO
Do not register resources.
