HP-UX SNAplus2 R7 NOF Programmer's Guide

NOF API Verbs
QUERY_NN_TOPOLOGY_NODE
Size of the supplied data buffer.
num_entries
Maximum number of nodes for which data should be returned. To request data for a specic node rather than
a range, specify the value
1. To return as many entries as possible, specify zero; in this case, SNAplus2 will
return the maximum number of entries that can be accommodated in the supplied data buffer.
list_options
The position in the list from which SNAplus2 should begin to return data, and the level of information required
for each entry. Specify the level of information with one of the following values:
AP_SUMMARY
Summary information only.
AP_DETAIL
Detailed information.
Combine this value using a logical OR operation with one of the following values:
AP_FIRST_IN_LIST
Start at the rst entry in the list.
AP_LIST_INCLUSIVE
Start at the entry specied by the combination of the node_name, node_type, and frsn parameters.
AP_LIST_FROM_NEXT
Start at the entry immediately following the entry specied by the combination of the node_name,
node_type, and frsn parameters.
The list is ordered by node_name, then by node_type (in the order AP_NETWORK_NODE, AP_VRN),
and lastly in numerical order of frsn. For more information about how the list is ordered and how the
application can obtain specic entries from it, see Section 2.7, List Options For QUERY_* Verbs.
node_name
Fully qualied name of the node for which information is required, or the name to be used as an index into
the list of nodes. This value is ignored if list_options is set to AP_FIRST_IN_LIST
The name is a 17-byte EBCDIC string, right-padded with EBCDIC spaces. It consists of a network ID of
up to 8 A-string characters, an EBCDIC dot (period) character, and a network name of up to 8 A-string
characters.
node_type
Type of the node. This value is ignored if list_options is set to AP_FIRST_IN_LIST. Possible values are:
AP_NETWORK_NODE
Network node.
AP_VRN
Virtual routing node.
AP_LEARN_NODE
Node type is unknown.
frsn
Flow Reduction Sequence Number (FRSN). Specify zero to return information about all nodes, or a nonzero
value to return information about nodes with a FRSN greater than or equal to this value.
