NET_INSTANCE_T(9S)NET_INSTANCE_T(9S)NAMEnet_instance_t - packet event structure passed through to hooks
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/neti.h>
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).
DESCRIPTION
The net_instance_t data structure defines a collection of instances to
be called when relevant events happen within IP. The value returned by
the nin_create() function is stored internally and passed back to both
the nin_destroy() and nin_shutdown() functions as the second argument.
The netid_t passed through to each function can be used to uniquely
identify each instance of IP.
STRUCTURE MEMBERS
