Kernel functions				     net_walk(9F)



NAME
     net_walk -	step through the list of registered network  pro-
     tocols

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/neti.h>

     net_data_t	*net_walk(net_data_t net, zoneid_t zoneid);

INTERFACE LEVEL
     Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)

PARAMETERS
     net

	 value	obtained  from	a  prior  call	to  net_walk   or
	 net_lookup.

     zoneid

	The zoneid that corresponds to the IP Instance in which the walk
	should be performed. Only require when the net argument is NULL.
	Valid values are GLOBAL_ZONEID for the shared IP
	instance, and the zoneid for an exclusive-IP zone.


DESCRIPTION
     This function is used to walk through  all	 of  the  network
     protocols	that  have  been  registered with this interface.
     The initial call to net_walk should be made  by  passing  in
     NULL  as the value	for net.  When net_walk	returns	NULL, the
     end of the	list has been reached.

     A caller of net_walk is required to walk through the  entire
     list  of  network protocols, until	NULL is	returned or, when
     finished with using the value returned, pass it into a  call
     to	net_release.

RETURN VALUE
     This function returns NULL	when  the  end	of  the	 list  is
     returned,	else  it  returns a non-NULL value as a	token for
     being passed into other function calls  within  this  inter-
     face.
