QUERY_COS_TG_ROW returns TG row information for a specified class of service as previously defined by DEFINE_COS (or implicitly by the node for the SNA-defined COSs).

This verb can be used to obtain information about a specific COS TG row, or about multiple COS TG rows, depending on the options used.

Supplied Parameters

The application supplies the following parameters:

opcode

AP_QUERY_COS_TG_ROW

overlay_size

For compatability with future releases of SNAplus2, your application must use this field to determine the exact length of the overlay structure returned, and should not rely on the use of the sizeof() function.

buf_ptr

A pointer to a data buffer that SNAplus2 will use to return the requested information.

buf_size

Size of the supplied data buffer.

num_entries

Maximum number of COS TG rows for which data should be returned. To request data for a specific COS TG row rather than a range, specify the value 1. To return as many entries as possible, specify zero; in this case, SNAplus2 will return the maximum number of entries that can be accommodated in the supplied data buffer.

list_options

The position in the list of COS TG rows from which SNAplus2 should begin to return data. Possible values are:

AP_FIRST_IN_LIST

Start at the first entry in the list.

AP_LIST_INCLUSIVE

Start at the entry specified by the combination of the cos_name and tg_row_index parameters.

AP_LIST_FROM_NEXT

Start at the entry immediately following the entry specified by the combination of the cos_name and tg_row_index parameters.

The list is ordered by cos_name, and then by tg_row_index for each COS. For more information about how the list is ordered and how the application can obtain specific entries from it, see “List Options For QUERY_* Verbs”.

cos_name

Class of service name for which data is required, or the name to be used as an index into the list. The name is an 8-byte type-A EBCDIC string (starting with a letter), padded on the right with EBCDIC spaces if the name is shorter than 8 characters. This parameter is ignored if list_options is set to AP_FIRST_IN_LIST.

tg_row_index

TG row number for which data is required, or the number to be used as an index into the list (the first row has an index of zero). This parameter is ignored if list_options is set to AP_FIRST_IN_LIST.

Returned Parameters: Successful Execution

If the verb executes successfully, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:

primary_rc

AP_OK

buf_size

Length of the information returned in the supplied buffer.

total_buf_size

Returned value indicating the size of buffer that would have been required to return all the list information requested. A value greater than buf_size indicates that not all the available entries were returned.

num_entries

Number of entries returned in the data buffer.

total_num_entries

Total number of entries available. A value greater than num_entries indicates that not all the available entries were returned.

Each entry in the data buffer consists of the following parameters:

cos_tg_row_data.overlay_size

The size of the returned cos_tg_row_data structure, and therefore the offset to the start of the next entry in the data buffer.

cos_tg_row_data.cos_name

Class of service name. This is an 8-byte type-A EBCDIC string (starting with a letter), padded on the right with EBCDIC spaces if the name is shorter than 8 characters.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row_index

TG row index (the first row has an index of zero).

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.minimum.effect_cap

Minimum limit for actual bits per second rate (line speed). The value is encoded as a 1-byte floating point number, represented by the formula 0.1 mmm * 2 eeeee where the bit representation of the byte is b'eeeeemmm'. Each unit of effective capacity is equal to 300 bits per second.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.minimum.connect_cost

Minimum limit for cost per connect time; an integer value in the range 0-255, where 0 is the lowest cost per connect time and 255 is the highest.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.minimum.byte_cost

Minimum limit for cost per byte; an integer value in the range 0-255, where zero is the lowest cost per byte and 255 is the highest.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.minimum.security

Minimum level of security. Possible values are:

AP_SEC_NONSECURE

No security.

AP_SEC_PUBLIC_SWITCHED_NETWORK

Data is transmitted over a public switched network.

AP_SEC_UNDERGROUND_CABLE

Data is transmitted over secure underground cable.

AP_SEC_SECURE_CONDUIT

Data is transmitted over a line in a secure conduit that is not guarded.

AP_SEC_GUARDED_CONDUIT

Data is transmitted over a line in a conduit that is protected against physical tapping.

AP_SEC_ENCRYPTED

Data is encrypted before transmission over the line.

AP_SEC_GUARDED_RADIATION

Data is transmitted over a line that is protected against physical and radiation tapping.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.minimum.prop_delay

Minimum limits for propagation delay: the time that a signal takes to travel the length of the link. Possible values are:

AP_PROP_DELAY_MINIMUM

Minimum propagation delay.

AP_PROP_DELAY_LAN

Delay is less than 480 microseconds (typical for a LAN). If the verb was issued to a running node, this value will be returned if the DEFINE_COS specified either AP_PROP_DELAY_LAN or AP_PROP_DELAY_MINIMUM.

AP_PROP_DELAY_TELEPHONE

Delay is in the range 480-49,512 microseconds (typical for a telephone network).

AP_PROP_DELAY_PKT_SWITCHED_NET

Delay is in the range 49,512-245,760 microseconds (typical for a packet-switched network).

AP_PROP_DELAY_SATELLITE

Delay is greater than 245,760 microseconds (typical for a satellite link).

AP_PROP_DELAY_MAXIMUM

Maximum propagation delay.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.minimum.user_def_parm_1 through cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.minimum.user_def_parm_3

Minimum values for user-defined parameters, which include other TG characteristics not covered by the above parameters. Each of these parameters is set to a value in the range 0-255.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.maximum.effect_cap

Maximum limit for actual bits per second rate (line speed). The value is encoded as a 1-byte floating point number, represented by the formula 0.1 mmm * 2 eeeee where the bit representation of the byte is eeeeemmm. Each unit of effective capacity is equal to 300 bits per second.

cos_tg_row_data.tg_row.maximum.connect_cost

Maximum limit for cost per connect time; an integer value in the range 0-255, where 0 is the lowest cost per connect time and 255 is the highest.
