.Dt NG_SSCFU 4
.Os FreeBSD
.Sh NAME
.Nm ng_sscfu
.Nd netgraph SSCF at the UNI node type
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <netnatm/saal/sscopdef.h>
.Fd #include <netnatm/saal/sscfudef.h>
.Fd #include <netgraph/atm/ng_sscfu.h>
.Sh DESCIPTION
The
.Nm
netgraph node implements ITU-T recommendation Q.2130.
This recommendation specifies the Service Specific Coordination
Function at the UNI.
This is a thin sub-layer between the SSCOP (see
.Xr ng_sscop 4 )
and the UNI signalling.
This node does not really implement a protocol but
provides a mapping between the signals at the upper layer of the SSCOP and
the signals, the UNI expectes at its lower layer.
It also provides default values for the parameters of the SSCOP.
.Pp
After creation of the node, the SSCF instance must be created by sending
an enable message to the node.
If the node is enabled, default SSCOP parameters
can be retrieved and and set in the corresponding SSCOP instance.
.Pp
The node is shutdown either by a
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
message or when all hooks are disconnected.
.Sh HOOKS
Each
.Nm
node has two hooks with fixed names:
.Bl -tag -width upper
.It Dv lower
This hook is the interface to the SSCOP.
The interface expected here is exactly
that which is exported by the
.Xr ng_sscop 4
node type.
.It Dv upper
This is the interface to the UNI. It uses the following message format:
.Bd -literal
struct sscfu_arg {
uint32_t sig;
u_char data[];
};
.Ed
.Pp
.Fa sig
is one of the following signals:
.Bd -literal
enum saal_sig {
SAAL_ESTABLISH_request, /* U -> SAAL: (UU) */
SAAL_ESTABLISH_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (UU) */
SAAL_ESTABLISH_confirm, /* SAAL -> U: (UU) */
SAAL_RELEASE_request, /* U -> SAAL: (UU) */
SAAL_RELEASE_confirm, /* SAAL -> U: */
SAAL_RELEASE_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (UU) */
SAAL_DATA_request, /* U -> SAAL: (DATA) */
SAAL_DATA_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (DATA) */
SAAL_UDATA_request, /* U -> SAAL: (UDATA) */
SAAL_UDATA_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (UDATA) */
};
.Ed
.Pp
The arrows in the comment show the direction of the signal whether it
is a signal that comes out of the node
.Ql ->
or is sent by the node user to the node
.Ql <- .
The type of data expected for the signal is specified in parantheses.
This data starts at the
.Fa data
field of the message structure.
.El
.Pp
If the
.Dv lower
hook is disconnected and the node is enabled, the protocol state is
reset.
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
The
.Nm
node understands the generic messages plus the following:
.Bl -tag -width xxx
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_GETDEFPARAM
This message returns a
.Fa sscop_param
structure, which contains the default parameters for the SSCOP at the
UNI.
This structure should be used for a
.Dv NGM_SSCOP_SETPARAM
message to the SSCOP node below the SSCF.
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_ENABLE
This message creates the actual SSCF instance and initializes it.
Until this is done, parameters may not be retrieved not set and all message
received on any hook are discarded.
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_DISABLE
Destroy the SSCF instance.
After this all messages on any hooks are discarded.
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_GETDEBUG
Retrieve the debugging flags in an
.Vt uint32_t .
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_SETDEBUG
Set debugging flags.
The argument must be an
.Vt uint32_t .
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_GETSTATE
Retrieve the current state of the SSCFU instance in an
.Vt uint32_t .
If the node has not been enabled, 0 is returned.
