Border Router#

This module includes functions to manage local network data with the OpenThread Border Router.

Typedefs#

typedef void(*

Functions#

otBorderRouterGetNetData(otInstance *aInstance, bool aStable, uint8_t *aData, uint8_t *aDataLength)

Provides a full or stable copy of the local Thread Network Data.

otBorderRouterAddOnMeshPrefix(otInstance *aInstance, const otBorderRouterConfig *aConfig)

Add a border router configuration to the local network data.

otBorderRouterRemoveOnMeshPrefix(otInstance *aInstance, const otIp6Prefix *aPrefix)

Remove a border router configuration from the local network data.

otBorderRouterGetNextOnMeshPrefix(otInstance *aInstance, otNetworkDataIterator *aIterator, otBorderRouterConfig *aConfig)

Gets the next On Mesh Prefix in the local Network Data.

otBorderRouterAddRoute(otInstance *aInstance, const otExternalRouteConfig *aConfig)

Add an external route configuration to the local network data.

otBorderRouterRemoveRoute(otInstance *aInstance, const otIp6Prefix *aPrefix)

Remove an external route configuration from the local network data.

otBorderRouterGetNextRoute(otInstance *aInstance, otNetworkDataIterator *aIterator, otExternalRouteConfig *aConfig)

Gets the next external route in the local Network Data.

otBorderRouterRegister(otInstance *aInstance)

Immediately register the local network data with the Leader.

void
otBorderRouterSetNetDataFullCallback(otInstance *aInstance, otBorderRouterNetDataFullCallback aCallback, void *aContext)

Sets the callback to indicate when Network Data gets full.

Typedef Documentation#

otBorderRouterNetDataFullCallback#

typedef void(* otBorderRouterNetDataFullCallback) (void *aContext) )(void *aContext)

Function pointer callback which is invoked when Network Data (local or leader) gets full.

Parameters
[in]aContext

A pointer to arbitrary context information.

Function Documentation#

otBorderRouterGetNetData#

otError otBorderRouterGetNetData (otInstance * aInstance, bool aStable, uint8_t * aData, uint8_t * aDataLength)

Provides a full or stable copy of the local Thread Network Data.

Parameters
[in]aInstance

A pointer to an OpenThread instance.

[in]aStable

TRUE when copying the stable version, FALSE when copying the full version.

[out]aData

A pointer to the data buffer.

[inout]aDataLength

On entry, size of the data buffer pointed to by aData. On exit, number of copied bytes.

Gets the next On Mesh Prefix in the local Network Data.

Parameters
[in]aInstance

A pointer to an OpenThread instance.

[inout]aIterator

A pointer to the Network Data iterator context. To get the first on-mesh entry it should be set to OT_NETWORK_DATA_ITERATOR_INIT.

[out]aConfig

A pointer to the On Mesh Prefix information.

otBorderRouterGetNextRoute#

otError otBorderRouterGetNextRoute (otInstance * aInstance, otNetworkDataIterator * aIterator, otExternalRouteConfig * aConfig)

Gets the next external route in the local Network Data.

Parameters
[in]aInstance

A pointer to an OpenThread instance.

otBorderRouterSetNetDataFullCallback#

void otBorderRouterSetNetDataFullCallback (otInstance * aInstance, otBorderRouterNetDataFullCallback aCallback, void * aContext)

Sets the callback to indicate when Network Data gets full.

Parameters
[in]aInstance

A pointer to an OpenThread instance.

[in]aCallback

The callback.

[in]aContext

A pointer to arbitrary context information used with aCallback.

Requires OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_BORDER_ROUTER_SIGNAL_NETWORK_DATA_FULL.

The callback is invoked whenever:

  • The device is acting as a leader and receives a Network Data registration from a Border Router (BR) that it cannot add to Network Data (running out of space).

  • The device is acting as a BR and new entries cannot be added to its local Network Data.

  • The device is acting as a BR and tries to register its local Network Data entries with the leader, but determines that its local entries will not fit.
