NAME

DL_REPLY_IND (dl_reply_ind_t) - this primitive is the service indication primitive for the acknowledged connectionless-mode data unit exchange service. It is passed from the DLS Provider to the DLS User to indicate either asuccessful request of a DLSDU from the peer data link user entity, or exchange of DLSDUs with a peer data link user entity.

SYNOPSIS

Consists of one M_PROTO message block containing the structure shown below, followed by zero or more M_DATA blocks.

typedef struct {
    t_uscalar_t  dl_primitive;
    t_uscalar_t  dl_dest_addr_length;
    t_uscalar_t  dl_dest_addr_offset;
    t_uscalar_t  dl_src_addr_length;
    t_uscalar_t  dl_src_addr_offset;
    t_uscalar_t  dl_priority;
    t_uscalar_t  dl_service_class;
} dl_reply_ind_t;

PARAMETERS

dl_primitive

conveys DL_REPLY_IND

dl_dest_addr_length

conveys the length of the DLSAP address of the destination DLS User. If the destination user is implemented using DLPI, this address is the full DLSAP address returned on the DL_BIND_ACK.

dl_dest_addr_offset

conveys the offset from the beginning of the M_PROTO message block where the destination DLSAP address begins.

dl_src_addr_length

conveys the length of the DLSAP address of the source DLS User.

dl_src_addr_offset

conveys the offset from the beginning of the M_PROTO message block where the source DLSAP address begins.

dl_priority

priority provided for the data unit transmission.

dl_service_class

specifies whether or not an acknowledge capability in the medium access control sublayer is to be used for the data unit transmission.

STATE

This primitive is valid in state DL_IDLE.

NEW STATE

The resulting state is unchanged.
