The DPIconnect_to_agent_SHM() Function

Syntax

#inlcude <snmp_dpi.h>

int  DPIconnect_to_agent_SHM(  /* Connect to DPI Shared Mem  */
        int          queue_id);/* target (agent) queue id    */

Parameters

queu_id

A queue_id known by the agent. The value is a fixed queueid. It must always be 1.

Return Values

If successful, a positive integer that represents the connection is returned. It is to be used as a handle in subsequent calls to DPI transport-related functions.

If failure, a negative integer is returned. It indicates the kind of error that occurred. See Return Codes from DPI Transport-Related Functions for a list of possible error codes.

Description

The DPIconnect_to_agent_SHM() function is used at the subagent side to setup a connection (via SHared Memory) to the DPI capable SNMP agent.

Examples

#include <snmp_dpi.h>int                  handle;

handle = DPIconnect_to_agent_SHM(1);
if (handle < 0) {
   printf("Error %d from connect\n",handle);
   exit(1);
}          /* endif */
