TxQuerySwitchCaps

Description

Returns the capabilities of the MVIP/H.100/H.110 adapter switch fabric and the number of T1/E1 interfaces and channels available on the T1/E1 adapter.

Prototype

short TxQuerySwitchCaps (short handle,
int size,
int revision,
unsigned short domain,
unsigned short routing,
unsigned short blocking,
unsigned short networks,
unsigned short channels)

handle TX board number.

size Not used but retained for compatibility with MVIP-90 specification.

revision Revision number of the adapter interface software

domain Which streams are connected to switch fabric. See MVIP-90/MVIP-95 specifications for meaning of bits.

routing Half-duplex routing capabilities of switch fabric. See MVIP-90/MVIP-95 specifications for meaning of bits.

blocking Possible blocking conditions in switch fabric. See MVIP-90/MVIP-95 specifications for meaning of bits.

networks Number of T1/E1 interfaces on the TX board. Must be either 0 or 2.

channels Pointer to array of 2 shorts where the number of channel time slots available on each network interface (i.e., channel[0] => T1/E1 A, channel[1] => T1/E1 B) is returned; value returned in networks parameter determines how many of the values returned here are valid (0, 1, or 2).

Return Values

Details:

See MVIP-90 Standard Release 1.1 for a detailed description of the domain, routing, and blocking capability bit masks returned by this request.

If the value zero is returned in the networks parameter, then there are no T1/E1 adapters on this board; if non-zero then the value(s) returned in the channels parameter may be used to determine if the adapter is a T1 adapter (24) or an E1 adapter (32).
