traffic.h contains the following programming interfaces:

Functions

TcAddFilter The TcAddFilter function associates a new filter with an existing flow that allows packets matching the filter to be directed to the associated flow.
TcAddFlow The TcAddFlow function adds a new flow on the specified interface.
TcCloseInterface The TcCloseInterface function closes an interface previously opened with a call to TcOpenInterface. All flows and filters on a particular interface should be closed before closing the interface with a call to TcCloseInterface.
TcDeleteFilter The TcDeleteFilter function deletes a filter previously added with the TcAddFilter function.
TcDeleteFlow The TcDeleteFlow function deletes a flow that has been added with the TcAddFlow function. Clients should delete all filters associated with a flow before deleting it, otherwise, an error will be returned and the function will not delete the flow.
TcDeregisterClient The TcDeregisterClient function deregisters a client with the Traffic Control Interface (TCI).
TcEnumerateFlows The TcEnumerateFlows function enumerates installed flows and their associated filters on an interface.
TcEnumerateInterfaces The TcEnumerateInterfaces function enumerates all traffic control�enabled network interfaces. Clients are notified of interface changes through the ClNotifyHandler function.
TcGetFlowNameA The TcGetFlowName function provides the name of a flow that has been created by the calling client. (ANSI)
TcGetFlowNameW The TcGetFlowName function provides the name of a flow that has been created by the calling client. (Unicode)
TcModifyFlow The TcModifyFlow function modifies an existing flow. When calling TcModifyFlow, new Flowspec parameters and any traffic control objects should be filled.
TcOpenInterfaceA The TcOpenInterface function opens an interface. (ANSI)
TcOpenInterfaceW The TcOpenInterface function opens an interface. (Unicode)
TcQueryFlowA The TcQueryFlow function queries traffic control for the value of a specific flow parameter based on the name of the flow. The name of a flow can be retrieved from the TcEnumerateFlows function or from the TcGetFlowName function. (ANSI)
TcQueryFlowW The TcQueryFlow function queries traffic control for the value of a specific flow parameter based on the name of the flow. The name of a flow can be retrieved from the TcEnumerateFlows function or from the TcGetFlowName function. (Unicode)
TcQueryInterface The TcQueryInterface function queries traffic control for related per-interface parameters.
TcRegisterClient The TcRegisterClient function is used to register a client with the traffic control interface (TCI). The TcRegisterClient function must be the first function call a client makes to the TCI.
TcSetFlowA The TcSetFlow function sets individual parameters for a given flow. (ANSI)
TcSetFlowW The TcSetFlow function sets individual parameters for a given flow. (Unicode)
TcSetInterface The TcSetInterface function sets individual parameters for a given interface.

Callback functions

TCI_ADD_FLOW_COMPLETE_HANDLER The ClAddFlowComplete function is used by traffic control to notify the client of the completion of its previous call to the TcAddFlow function.
TCI_DEL_FLOW_COMPLETE_HANDLER The ClDeleteFlowComplete function is used by traffic control to notify the client of the completion of its previous call to the TcDeleteFlow function.
TCI_MOD_FLOW_COMPLETE_HANDLER The ClModifyFlowComplete function is used by traffic control to notify the client of the completion of its previous call to the TcModifyFlow function.
TCI_NOTIFY_HANDLER The ClNotifyHandler function is used by traffic control to notify the client of various traffic control�specific events, including the deletion of flows, changes in filter parameters, or the closing of an interface.

Structures

ADDRESS_LIST_DESCRIPTOR The ADDRESS_LIST_DESCRIPTOR structure provides network address descriptor information for a given interface.
ENUMERATION_BUFFER The ENUMERATION_BUFFER structure contains information specific to a given flow, including flow name, the number of filters associated with the flow, and an array of filters associated with the flow.
IP_PATTERN The IP_PATTERN structure applies a specific pattern or corresponding mask for the IP protocol. The IP_PATTERN structure designation is used by the traffic control interface in the application of packet filters.
IPX_PATTERN The IPX_PATTERN structure applies a specific pattern or corresponding mask for the IPX protocol. The IPX_PATTERN structure designation is used by the traffic control interface in the application of packet filters.
TC_GEN_FILTER The TC_GEN_FILTER structure creates a filter that matches a certain set of packet attributes or criteria, which can subsequently be used to associate packets that meet the attribute criteria with a particular flow.
TC_GEN_FLOW The TC_GEN_FLOW structure creates a generic flow for use with the traffic control interface. The flow is customized through the members of this structure.
TC_IFC_DESCRIPTOR The TC_IFC_DESCRIPTOR structure is an interface identifier used to enumerate interfaces.
TCI_CLIENT_FUNC_LIST The TCI_CLIENT_FUNC_LIST structure is used by the traffic control interface to register and then access client-callback functions. Each member of TCI_CLIENT_FUNC_LIST is a pointer to the client provided�callback function.
