Hi!
I have written the following program to get the inerface flags for the en0
interface.The Program reports “Operation not supported”.
Can anyone please tell is the operation really not supported or Iam making
any mistake.
Later i want to set the flags with the help of ioctl.
Can any one pls tell how it can be done
Thanking for any reply in Advance
regards
Nitin
#include <stdio.h>
#include <net/if.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <errno.h>
struct ifreq if_req;
int main()
{
unsigned int retval,fd;
memset (&if_req, 0, sizeof(if_req));
strcpy(if_req.ifr_name,“en0”);
if_req.ifr_ifru.ifru_flags = 0;
fd = open("/dev/io-net/en0", 0);
retval=ioctl(fd, SIOCGIFFLAGS, (caddr_t)&if_req);
if(retval == -1) {
printf(“First ioctl returned -1 %d”,errno);
printf("\nThat means %s\n",strerror(errno));
exit (0);
}
else
printf("\nThe flags are %d",if_req.ifr_ifru.ifru_flags);
}
