RTM_NET_ADDRESS structure (rtmv2.h)

  • Article

The RTM_NET_ADDRESS structure is used to communicate address information to the routing table manager for any address family. The address family must use only with contiguous address masks that are less than 8 bytes.

Syntax

typedef struct _RTM_NET_ADDRESS {
  USHORT AddressFamily;
  USHORT NumBits;
  UCHAR  AddrBits[RTM_MAX_ADDRESS_SIZE];
} RTM_NET_ADDRESS, *PRTM_NET_ADDRESS;

Members

AddressFamily

Specifies the type of network address for this address (such as IPv4).

NumBits

Specifies the number of bits in the network part of the AddrBits bit array (for example, 192.168.0.0 has 8 bits).

AddrBits[RTM_MAX_ADDRESS_SIZE]

Specifies an array of bits that form the address prefix.

Remarks

If the client specifies an address and a mask length that do not correspond to each other, inconsistent results are returned by the routing table manager. For example, if a client specifies an address as 10.10.10.10 and a length as 24 when calling RTM_IPV4_SET_ADDR_AND_LEN, the routing table manager may return an incorrect NetAddress.
