The Retrieve PPP Connection Profiles (QtocRtvPPPCnnPrf) API retrieves the details of a specific PPP connection job profile. If the connection profile describes multiple connections, then details of each connection are also retrieved.
None.
The variable that is to receive the information requested. You can specify the size of this area to be smaller than the format requested as long as you specify the length parameter correctly. As a result, the API returns only the data that the area can hold.
The length of the receiver variable. If the length is larger than the size of the receiver variable, the results may not be predictable. The minimum length is 8 bytes.
The name of the PPP connection profile to be returned.
The format of the retrieved profile to be returned. The format names supported are:
| PRFR0100 | Connection profile attributes. Refer to PRFR0100 Format for details on the format. |
| PRFR0200 | Connection profile static parameters. Refer to PRFR0100 Format and PRFR0200 Format for details on the format. |
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error code parameter.
To retrieve the basic connection profile information and current profile job status, use format PRFR0100. For more detailed profile and connection attributes, use format PRFR0200.
The following data about a connection profile is returned for the PRFR0100 format. For detailed descriptions of the fields in the table, see PRFR0100 Field Descriptions.
