The MprAdminInterfaceCreate function creates an interface on a specified server.
Syntax
DWORD MprAdminInterfaceCreate(
[in] MPR_SERVER_HANDLE hMprServer,
[in] DWORD dwLevel,
[in] LPBYTE lpbBuffer,
[out] HANDLE *phInterface
);
Parameters
[in] hMprServer
Handle to the router on which to execute this call. Obtain this handle by calling MprAdminServerConnect.
[in] dwLevel
A DWORD value that describes the format in which the information is structured in the lpBuffer parameter. Acceptable values for dwLevel include 0, 1, 2, and 3, as listed in the following table.
| Value | Structure Format |
|---|---|
| 0 | MPR_INTERFACE_0 |
| 1 | MPR_INTERFACE_1 |
| 2 | MPR_INTERFACE_2 |
| 3 | Windows Server 2008 or later: MPR_INTERFACE_3 |
[in] lpbBuffer
A pointer to a
MPR_INTERFACE_0,
MPR_INTERFACE_1,
MPR_INTERFACE_2, or MPR_INTERFACE_3 structure. The dwLevel parameter indicates the type of structure.
[out] phInterface
Pointer to a HANDLE variable. The variable receives a handle to use in all subsequent calls to manage this interface.
Return value
If the function succeeds, the return value is NO_ERROR.
If the function fails, the return value is one of the following error codes.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
|
The calling application does not have sufficient privileges. |
|
The router interface type is not supported because the Dynamic Interface Manager is configured to run only on a LAN. |
|
An interface with the same name already exists. |
|
Insufficient resources to complete the operation. |
|
The dwLevel value is invalid. |
Remarks
The MprAdminInterfaceCreate function supports the MPR_INTERFACE_2 structure. However, MprConfigInterfaceCreate does not. In order to create a demand-dial interface that is persistent after a reboot, call MprAdminInterfaceCreate with MPR_INTERFACE_2, then call MprConfigInterfaceCreate with MPR_INTERFACE_0 or MPR_INTERFACE_1.
