proxyLib

NAME

proxyLib - proxy Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) client library

ROUTINES

proxyReg( ) - register a proxy client
proxyUnreg( ) - unregister a proxy client

DESCRIPTION

This library implements the client side of the proxy Address Resolution Protocol (ARP). It allows a VxWorks target to register itself as a proxy client by calling proxyReg( ) and to unregister itself by calling proxyUnreg( ).

Both commands take an interface name and an IP address as arguments. The interface, ifName, specifies the interface through which to send the message. ifName must be a backplane interface. proxyAddr is the IP address associated with the interface ifName.
