DLPI Primitives
Local Management Primitives
Chapter 2

dl_name
name of driver.
dl_instance_num
instance number of device.
dl_mtu
MTU
dl_hdw_state
hardware state
dl_module_id_1
default module ID name for the stream. The default name is
“
lan.
”
This value is used as the interface name when executing the
ifconfig
command.
dl_module_id_2
optional module ID name for streams that support multiple
encapsulation types. If the user is attached to a stream that supports
ETHER and IEEE8023, then this name is set to
“
snap
”
. Otherwise,
the field is set to NULL. This value is used as the interface name
when executing the
ifconfig
command.
dl_arpmod_name
identifies the ARP helper module for the network interface. If the
driver does not have an ARP helper, this field will be NULL.
dl_nmid
identifies the network management ID value for a specific interface.
dl_reserved[1,2]
reserved fields
State
The message is valid in any State in response to a DL_PPA_REQ.
New State
The resulting state is unchanged.
