<h3>Usage Notes</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The <strong>pDPIpacket()</strong> function parses the buffer that is pointed
|
||
|
to by the <em>packet_p</em> parameter. It ensures that the buffer contains a
|
||
|
valid DPI packet and that the packet is for a DPI version and release that is
|
||
|
supported by the DPI functions in use.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Typical follow-on processing will examine the packet_type in the returned
|
||
|
snmp_dpi_hdr, and take various actions to process the various types of DPI
|
||
|
packets that may arrive. A subagent would normally expect to handle all the
|
||
|
possible DPI packet types listed in <strong><qtossapi.h></strong>, except
|
||
|
SNMPv2 types (SNMP_DPI_GETBULK and SNMP_DPI_TRAPV2), and types sent only to
|
||
|
SNMP agents (SNMP_DPI_OPEN, SNMP_DPI_REGISTER, SNMP_DPI_TRAP, and
|
||
|
SNMP_DPI_INFORM). Note that a close or unregister packet can be sent from an
|
||
|
agent to the subagent. And if the subagent receives an are-you-there packet, it
|
||
|
should build and send a response packet with the proper error_code.</p>
