vrf

namespace eos

class vrf_handler

#include <vrf.h>

The VRF handler.

This class provides handler APIs to react to a VRF’s operational state change.

Public Functions

vrf_handler(vrf_mgr * mgr)

vrf_mgr * get_vrf_mgr() const

virtual void on_vrf_state(std::string vrf_name, vrf_state_t vrf_state)

Called when a VRF’s state changes. When a VRF:

• is created, its state is VRF_INITIALIZING.
• becomes active, its state is VRF_ACTIVE.
• is being deleted, its state is VRF_DELETING.
• is deleted, its state is VRF_NULL.

class vrf_iter_t

Private Functions

vrf_iter_t(vrf_iter_impl * const)

Friends

friend class vrf_iter_impl

class vrf_mgr

#include <vrf.h>

The manager for VRF, this is the main entry point for applications to use EosSdk VRF APIs.

Public Functions

virtual ~vrf_mgr()

virtual vrf_iter_t vrf_iter() const = 0

Iterates through all VRFs on the system, yielding a vrf_t for each VRF.

virtual vrf_t vrf(std::string const & vrf_name) const = 0

Returns the named VRF, or a default VRF object if it does not exist.

virtual int socket_at(int domain, int type, int protocol, std::string const & vrf_name) = 0

Opens a socket inside a VRF specified by ‘vrf_name’.

Return

fd on success, -1 on error, and errno is set appropriately.

Parameters

• domain -

  A communication domain, same as in socket().

• type -

  The communication semantics, such as SOCK_STREAM, same as in socket().

• protocol -

  The protocol to be used with the socket, same as in socket().

• vrf_name -

  The name of the vrf_name in which the socket will be created.

class vrf_t

#include <vrf.h>

This data structure is used to describe an VRF on a switch.

Public Functions

vrf_t()

vrf_t(std::string name, vrf_state_t state, uint64_t rd)

std::string name() const

Getter for ‘name’: the name of the VRF.

vrf_state_t state() const

Getter for ‘state’: the state of this VRF.

uint64_t rd() const

Getter for ‘rd’: the route distinguisher of the VRF.

bool operator==(vrf_t const & other) const

bool operator!=(vrf_t const & other) const

std::string to_string() const

Returns a string representation of the current object’s values.

Private Members

std::string name_

vrf_state_t state_

uint64_t rd_

Friends

friend std::ostream & operator<<

A utility stream operator that adds a string representation of vrf_t to the ostream.
