Member Function Documentation

nsapi_error_t add_dns_server ( const SocketAddress &  address ) [virtual, inherited]

Add a domain name server to list of servers to query.

Parameters:
addressDestination for the host address
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure

Definition at line 63 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.

virtual nsapi_error_t connect (  ) [pure virtual, inherited]

Start the interface.

Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure
virtual nsapi_error_t disconnect (  ) [pure virtual, inherited]

Stop the interface.

Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure
const char * get_gateway (  ) [virtual, inherited]

Get the local gateway.

Returns:
Null-terminated representation of the local gateway or null if no network mask has been recieved

Definition at line 38 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.

const char * get_ip_address (  ) [virtual, inherited]

Get the local IP address.

Returns:
Null-terminated representation of the local IP address or null if no IP address has been recieved

Definition at line 28 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.

const char * get_mac_address (  ) [virtual, inherited]

Get the local MAC address.

Provided MAC address is intended for info or debug purposes and may not be provided if the underlying network interface does not provide a MAC address

Returns:
Null-terminated representation of the local MAC address or null if no MAC address is available

Definition at line 23 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.

const char * get_netmask (  ) [virtual, inherited]

Get the local network mask.

Returns:
Null-terminated representation of the local network mask or null if no network mask has been recieved

Definition at line 33 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.

virtual NetworkStack* get_stack (  ) [protected, pure virtual, inherited]

Provide access to the NetworkStack object.

Returns:
The underlying NetworkStack object
nsapi_error_t gethostbyname ( const char *  host,
SocketAddress *  address,
nsapi_version_t  version = NSAPI_UNSPEC 
) [virtual, inherited]

Translates a hostname to an IP address with specific version.

The hostname may be either a domain name or an IP address. If the hostname is an IP address, no network transactions will be performed.

If no stack-specific DNS resolution is provided, the hostname will be resolve using a UDP socket on the stack.

Parameters:
addressDestination for the host SocketAddress
hostHostname to resolve
versionIP version of address to resolve, NSAPI_UNSPEC indicates version is chosen by the stack (defaults to NSAPI_UNSPEC)
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure

Definition at line 58 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.

nsapi_error_t set_dhcp ( bool  dhcp ) [virtual, inherited]

Enable or disable DHCP on the network.

Enables DHCP on connecting the network. Defaults to enabled unless a static IP address has been assigned. Requires that the network is disconnected.

Parameters:
dhcpTrue to enable DHCP
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure

Definition at line 48 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.

nsapi_error_t set_network ( const char *  ip_address,
const char *  netmask,
const char *  gateway 
) [virtual, inherited]

Set a static IP address.

Configures this network interface to use a static IP address. Implicitly disables DHCP, which can be enabled in set_dhcp. Requires that the network is disconnected.

Parameters:
ip_addressNull-terminated representation of the local IP address
netmaskNull-terminated representation of the local network mask
gatewayNull-terminated representation of the local gateway
Returns:
0 on success, negative error code on failure

Definition at line 43 of file NetworkInterface.cpp.
