RE: PPP status

["Carl Galgano" <cgalgano2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Marty:
On our web site, under the download section is some code that Art
Tostaine provided that might help.  It monitors the QTCP message queue
and picks up statuses and the IP address of a dial up PPP.  It might at
least be a start to your solution.
Good luck.

Subject: PPP status


I need start and check the status of a PPP connection profile from a
program.

Is it possible to use SNDINQMSG parm of STRTCPPTP to determine if the
profile actually came active, perhaps by receiving messages from the
QTCP message queue?

It looks like the QtocRtvPPPCnnPrf API format PRFR0100 will retrieve the
status on V5, but this API does not appear to be available prior to
V5R1.

Looks like for V4R5 I would have to use QDCLCFGD or RTVCFGSTS with the
line name, and then just assume that if the line is active, then any
routes would also be ready to use.

Thanks,
-Marty
