Dear All,
I am developing a network interface and a protocol plumber for it for MAC OS X 10.4.
Can someobody please tell me what are the steps to be taken for attaching the network interface and protocol plumber. I did the following steps.
1. ifnet_allocate for allocating the ifp.
2. proto_register_plumber for registering the plumber handlers
3. ifnet_attach for attaching the interface to the global list.
4. Do I have to call any other function to register and activate the interface and protocol plumber. I understand that there exist a function dlil_plumb_protocol, to be called for activating the plumber. Is there any corresponding function in MAC OS X
10.4, which needs to be called to activate this.
Presently the data packets coming in are received up to the network interface. The plumber function is not being called. Kindly looking for a help in this.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Anees
