Gatekeeper API Functions and Structures
This chapter describes the API functions and structures that an external application must use to exchange messages with the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper, and contains the following sections:
The external application links with the object code, which contains the API functions. The header file contains API prototypes and type definitions.
Gatekeeper API Functions
This section describes the functions provided with the API. These functions should be used by the external application to gather information from and provide information to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. The functions described in this section are:
GkapiSetupClient
This function sets up the socket for the application to communicate as a client with the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. In this situation, the application is the client and the Gatekeeper is the server, which means the application must initiate the communication with the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
Input
The input to this function is:
•
A pointer to the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure. The application must set up the TCPPort and IPAddress fields and must preserve this structure for the duration of the connection.
•
A pointer to the STATUS_TYPE enumeration. Possible values for STATUS_TYPE are:
–
PROCESSING_SUCCESSFUL—Successful connection to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
–
CONNECT_IN_PROGRESS—Connection is pending.
–
TCP_HANDLE_ERROR—Error was encountered in handle creation.
–
TCP_CONNECT_ERROR—Error was encountered in connecting to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
–
TCP_NONBLOCK_ERROR—Error was encountered when setting up the socket for nonblocking I/O
•
A boolean value that allows the application to specify if the socket I/O should be nonblocking or blocking. If the application specifies blocking, the Gatekeeper API calls to setup the connection and read a message that does not return until the action is complete.
Return
The return for this function is an integer. If the client socket connection has been set up successfully or is in progress, a connection handle is returned. This connection handle is the socket descriptor that the application uses to wait on a connection completion or read socket event. If an error occurs while setting up the client connection, the value -1 is returned. In this case, the error information is provided in the STATUS_TYPE.
GkapiSetupServer
This function sets up the socket for the application to communicate as a server with the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. In this situation, the application is the server and the Gatekeeper is the client, which means that the application will accept incoming connections from Cisco IOS Gatekeeper clients.
Input
•
A pointer to the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure. The application must set up the TCPPort and IPAddress fields and must preserve this structure for the duration of the connection.
•
A pointer to the STATUS_TYPE enumeration. Possible values for STATUS_TYPE are:
–
PROCESSING_SUCCESSFUL—Successful connection to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
–
TCP_HANDLE_ERROR—Error was encountered in handle creation.
–
TCP_ADDRESS_ALREADY_IN_USE—Specified local IP address is already in use.
–
TCP_ADDRESS_NOT_AVAIL—Specified local IP address is not available on the local machine.
–
TCP_BIND_ERROR—Error was encountered in setting up the server socket.
–
TCP_LISTEN_ERROR—Error was encountered in setting up the server socket.
–
TCP_NONBLOCK_ERROR—Error was encountered when setting up the socket for nonblocking I/O.
•
A boolean value that allows the application to specify if the socket I/O should be nonblocking or blocking. If the application specifies blocking, the Gatekeeper API calls to setup the connection and read a message that does not return until the action is complete.
Return
The return for this function is an integer. If the client socket connection has been set up successfully or is in progress, a connection handle is returned. This connection handle is the socket descriptor that the application uses to wait on a connection completion or read socket event. If an error occurs while setting up the client connection, the value -1 is returned. In this case, the error information is provided in the STATUS_TYPE.
GkapiClientConnected
This function must be called by the application to indicate that a select event for a connect complete has occurred.
Input
The input to this function is:
•
A pointer to the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure.
•
A pointer to the STATUS_TYPE enumeration. Possible values for STATUS_TYPE are:
–
PROCESSING_SUCCESSFUL—Successful connection to the Gatekeeper.
–
TCP_CONNECT_ERROR—Error was encountered in connecting to the Gatekeeper.
•
An integer that indicates that a connect complete has occurred.
Return
The return for this function is an integer. If the socket connection has been set up successfully or is in progress, a connection handle is returned. This connection handle is the socket descriptor that the application uses to wait on a connection completion or read socket event. If an error occurs while setting up the client connection, the value -1 is returned. In this case, the error information is provided in the STATUS_TYPE.
GkapiAcceptConnection
This function must be called by the application (when it is running in the server mode) to indicate that a select event for an incoming connection has occurred.
Input
The input to this function is
•
A pointer to the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure.
•
A pointer to the STATUS_TYPE enumeration. Possible values for STATUS_TYPE are:
–
PROCESSING_SUCCESSFUL—Successful connection to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
–
TCP_CONNECT_ERROR—Error was encountered in connecting to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
•
An integer that indicates that an incoming connection has occurred.
•
A pointer to the GKAPI_TCP_ADDR_INFO structure. The Gatekeeper API provides the IP address and TCP port of the client with which this connection is associated.
Return
The return for this function is an integer. If the socket connection has been set up successfully or is in progress, a connection handle is returned. This connection handle is the socket descriptor that the application uses to wait on a connection completion or read socket event. If an error occurs while setting up the client connection, the value -1 is returned. In this case, the error information is provided in the STATUS_TYPE.
GkapiGetVersion
Applications can use this function to obtain the GKTMP version used by the API and the gatekeeper. The version number consists of a major number (gk_major) and a minor number (gk_minor). For example, Version 1 is represented as 100.
Input
The input to this function is
•
A pointer to the GKAPI_VERSION_INFO structure.
Return
The return for this function is an integer. The integer indicates one of the following status codes:
•
GKAPI_RET_OK—Gatekeeper TMP version is prior to or the same as the gatekeeper API version.
•
GKAPI_RET_NOK—Gatekeeper TMP version is later than the gatekeeper
API version.•
GKAPI_RET_OK_NOGKDATA—Version used by the gatekeeper is not known. In this case, the gk_major and gk_minor members of GKAPI_VERSION_INFO_T are invalid and set to -1.
CloseGateKeeperConnection
This function closes the TCP connection between the external application and the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. This function is called under error circumstances and when the external application no longer wants to maintain a relationship with the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
Input
The input for this function is a pointer to the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure.
Return
There is no return for this function.
GetReadMsgBuffer
This function allocates memory for the size of GK_READ_MSG structure. This structure is used to store messages received from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. This function contains an enumeration of the messages that can be received (REQUEST messages from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper for RRQ, ARQ, LRQ, LCF, LRJ, as well as registration and unregistration responses from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper for ARQ, RRQ, URQ, LRQ, LCF, LRJ messages) and a union of structures for the different messages.
Note
When the external application no longer needs the message buffer, the application must call FreeReadMsgBuffer to release the memory back to the system.
Input
There is no input to this function.
Return
The return for this function is a pointer to the GK_READ_MSG structure. If the memory allocation fails, this pointer will be NULL.
ReadMsgBuffer
This function reads a message from the TCP socket and should be called when the external application has detected a read event on the socket. This function stores the message type into the structure. The parameters received in the message are stored in the structure that corresponds with the message type.
Note
GetReadMsgBuffer must be called to allocate an empty buffer before this function can be used.
FreeReadMsgBuffer must be called after this function has completed, except when the STATUS_TYPE returns INCOMPLETE_MSG_READ.After reading a message, this function sets the message type and populates the appropriate structure. For example, if an ARQ message has been received from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper, the msgType parameter is set to ARQ_REQUEST_MSG and the ARQ_REQUEST_MSG structure is populated.
Because some parameters are optional, these parameters might not be received for a particular message. Structure members that are character pointers are initialized to NULL. Integers and enumerations are set to their initialization values. Therefore, the API can assume that if a structure member has a pointer set to NULL or to its initialization value, that particular parameter has not been received.
The following initialization values indicate that the parameter was not received from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper:
•
canMapAlias—INITIALIZE_CAN_MAP_ALIAS_VALUE
•
bandWidthPresent—TRUE (indicating that bandWidth has been received and filled in) or FALSE (indicating that bandWidth has not been received)
•
answerCall—INITIALIZE_ANSWER_CALL_VALUE
•
REDIRECT_REASON_TYPE—REDIRECT_REASON_INFO_NOT_RCVD
•
ENDPOINT_TYPE—ENDPOINT_INFO_NOT_RCVD
Input
The input for this function is:
•
A pointer to the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure.
•
A pointer to the GK_READ_MSG structure that was allocated by the GetReadMsgBuffer function. The GK_READ_MSG structure contains an enumeration of the message types expected from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper and a union of structures for various messages expected from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
Return
The return for this function is the STATUS_TYPE. Possible values for STATUS_TYPE are:
•
PROCESSING_SUCCESSFUL—No errors were encountered.
•
TCP_READ_ERROR—A TCP read error was encountered. The application should call CloseGateKeeperConnection to close the connection to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
•
MEM_ALLOC_FAIL—Memory allocation failed. This function, dynamically allocates memory for fields within the GK_READ_MSG structure.
•
MSG_READ_ERROR—The message read was not understood by the API function. The application should call CloseGateKeeperConnection to close the connection to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
•
INCOMPLETE_MSG_READ—The message was not completely read from the TCP connection because of network conditions. The application should call the function again in order to continue reading the data. In this situation, FreeMsgBuffer should not be called. After all the data has been read, the STATUS_TYPE is set to one of the other possible values, and after processing the message type the FreeMsgBuffer can be called.
•
TCP_CONNECTION_CLOSED—The connection to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper has been closed. The application must call CloseGateKeeperConnection to free resources such as gkHandle in the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure.
•
NULL_POINTER_PASSED—The pointer to the GK_READ_MSG is null.
FreeReadMsgBuffer
This function frees memory that was allocated by the call to GetReadMsgBuffer and ReadMsgBuffer. This function must be called after processing the information returned by ReadMsgBuffer.

A pointer to the GKAPI_SOCK_INFO structure.
•
A pointer to the GK_CMD_MSG_TYPE structure, which contains a union of the structures for the various command messages that can be sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. Each structure contains a header, CMD_HEADERINFO_TYPE, that must be filled in by the application. The msgType field must be filled in to indicate which command message should be sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
Return
The return for this function is the STATUS_TYPE. Possible values for STATUS_TYPE are:
•
PROCESSING_SUCCESSFUL—No errors were encountered.
•

•
NULL_POINTER_PASSED—The pointer to the GK_CMD_MSG is null.
WriteResponseMsg
This function writes a response message to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. This structure contains RESPONSE_MSG_TYPE, which is an enumeration of the response messages that can be sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
The calling function must set the message type and populate the appropriate structure within the union. For example, if a response RCF needs to be sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper, the application should set the msgType to RCF_RESPONSE_MSG and populate the RCF_RESPONSE_MSG structure.
The following rules apply to responses sent by the external application to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper:
•
Transport-addresses must be preceded with "I:", followed by the address.
•
Alias-addresses must be preceded with either "H:", "E:", or "M:" followed by the alias address.
•
Values in a "sequence of values" must be separated by a space.
•
HEADER_INFO must include the "from", "to" and "transactionID" fields. The notification field is not used with the WriteResponseMsg function.
Only changed or new fields should be populated and sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. Parameters that are not to be sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper must either be set to their initialization value or to NULL (for pointers). The API assumes that if a structure member is set to its initialization value or has a pointer set to NULL, that parameter should not be sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.
The following initialization values indicate that the parameter should not be sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper:
•
bandWidthPresent—TRUE (indicating that the bandWidth should be sent) or FALSE (indicating that the bandWidth should not be sent)
•
REDIRECT_REASON_TYPE—REDIRECT_REASON_INFO_NOT_RCVD
•
ENDPOINT_TYPE—ENDPOINT_INFO_NOT_RCVD
Note
If the application requires additional time before responding to a message from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper, the application can send a "delay" message by setting msgType to RIP_RESPONSE_MSG. The delay value (1 through 65536) must be specified and the transactionID must be the same as the one received from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper.

Structure
See REG_UNREG_RESP_MSG.
If the message received from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper is a RAS message that is not supported by the API function, the msgType is set to MSG_NOT_SUPPORTED. If a response is required, an appropriate response is constructed by the API function and sent to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper. The header information in the UNSUPPORTED_MSG structure is filled in by the API function. This situation could occur if the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper has been upgraded to support new messages but the API function has not been correspondingly upgraded.
If the message received from the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper, is not recognized by the API function, the msgType is set to UNKNOWN_MSG and the STATUS_TYPE is set to MSG_READ_ERROR. In this case, the external application should close the connection to the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper by calling the CloseGateKeeperConnection function.
