SYNOPSIS
This message consists of a M_PROTO message block formatted as
follows:
struct T_discon_ind {
long PRIM_type; /* always T_DISCON_IND */
long DISCON_reason; /* disconnect reason - */
long SEQ_number; /* sequence number - */
}
DESCRIPTION
This primitive indicates to the user that either a request for
connection has been denied or an existing connection has been
disconnected. The format of this message is one M_PROTO
message block possibly followed by one or more M_DATA message
blocks if there is any user data associated with the
primitive.
Parameters
PRIM_type
identifies the primitive type
DISCON_reason
is the reason for disconnect. The reason codes are
protocol specific.
SEQ_number
is the sequence number which identifies which connect
indication was denied, or it is -1 if the provider is
disconnecting an existing connection.
Rules
The SEQ_number is only meaningful when this primitive is sent
to a passive user who has the corresponding connect indication
outstanding. It allows the transport user to identify which
of its outstanding connect indications is associated with the
disconnect.
