Switch MFDB Support

This document provides a brief description of the Switch MFDB OpEN APIs. It provides the following services:

Example C Application mfdb_example

Initialization

In the main function, the sample application initializes the OpEN API RPC service by calling openapiClientRegister() and waits for the RPC service in switchdrvr to start. A Client Handle is returned by openapiClientRegister() which is used while invoking the OpEN APIs. The application then exercises the associated OpEN APIs and logs informational and/or error messages on the console. The example application runs to its completion and exits.

mfdb_example

mfdb_example.c is a sample application that demonstrates the use of the MFDB OpEN API. mfdb_example is started from the command line and exercises all the MFDB OpEN APIs one by one.
