Requests network information from the network service (NS) provider.
This primitive consists of one M_PROTO message block with the following structure:
typedef struct { ulong PRIM_type; } N_info_req_t;
The N_INFO_REQ primitive requests the NS provider to return the values of all supported protocol parameters and the current state of the NS provider. The N_INFO_REQ primitive does not affect the state of the network. The information returned is detailed under the N_INFO_ACK primitive.
PRIM_type | Indicates the N_INFO_REQ primitive. |
The NS provider generates one of the following acknowledgments upon receipt of the primitive:
Successful | The N_INFO_ACK primitive acknowledges the N_INFO_REQ primitive. |
Unsuccessful | There are no non-fatal errors associated with issuing this primitive. |
The N_INFO_REQ primitive is part of X.25 Licensed Program.
