Static Filter API

This document provides a brief description of the Static Filter OpEN APIs. It provides the following services:

The 'Create' and 'Remove' operations would affect the Switch behavior and configuration.

Example C Application static_filter_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.

static_filter_example

static_filter_example.c is a sample application that demonstrates the use of OpEN's Static Filter APIs. static_filter_example is started from the command line and can be used to exercise the various APIs by specifying arguments on the command line.
