Network Setup Protocol Structures and Data Types

OTCfgTCPInterfacesPacked

The OTCfgTCPInterfacesPacked structure stores information about the conﬁgured TCP/IP interfaces in packed format. See Listing 2-16 in Chapter 2, “Using Network Setup,” for sample code that packs and unpacks this structure.

IMPORTANT

You must pack this structure before you write it to the database and you must unpack this structure after you reading it from the database. ▲

struct OTCfgTCPInterfacesPacked {

UInt16	fCount;
UInt8	fConfigMethod;
UInt8	fIPAddress[4];
UInt8	fSubnetMask[4];
UInt8	fAppleTalkZone[256];
UInt8	part[sizeof(OTCfgTCPInterfacesPackedPart)];

};

Field descriptions
fCount	A value that is always 1 in the current versions of Open
	Transport.
fConfigMethod	The conﬁguration method. For possible values, see
	OTCfgTCPConfigMethod (page 162).
fIPAddress	The IP address that has been assigned to this interface.
fSubnetMask	The subnet mask.
fAppleTalkZone	The AppleTalk zone for this interface. Remove trailing
	bytes when you pack this structure.
part	A OTCfgTCPInterfacesPackedPart (page 114) structure
	containing port, module, and framing information.

OTCfgTCPInterfacesPackedPart

The OTCfgTCPInterfacesPackedPart structure is a member of the OTCfgTCPInterfacesPacked (page 114) structure and stores port, module and framing information about the conﬁgured TCP/IP interfaces.
