Before an application can accept an incoming call, it first must have a line open. A line is opened as a result of an application calling the TAPI lineOpen function. This TAPI-function call causes underlying drivers to encapsulate TAPI parameters in NDIS structures in order to prepare to receive an incoming call. After the CoNDIS WAN miniport driver receives an incoming call, the miniport driver must first create a virtual connection (VC) with the NDPROXY driver and then notify NDPROXY of the incoming call. NDPROXY in turn notifies the application through TAPI lineOpen function. The following describes how the incoming call is set up, connected, and made:

  • NDPROXY specifies the TAPI parameters for an incoming connection in a CO_AF_TAPI_SAP structure. NDPROXY fills this structure's members with the following information that was passed in the TAPI function:

    • Open-line identifier in the ulLineID member
    • Address of the incoming connection in the ulAddressID member
    • Media mode of the incoming connection's information stream in the ulMediaModes member

  • NDPROXY overlays the CO_AF_TAPI_SAP structure on the Sap member of a CO_SAP structure and sets the SapLength member of CO_SAP to the size of CO_AF_TAPI_SAP. NDPROXY must also set the SapType member of CO_SAP to AF_TAPI_SAP_TYPE.

  • Once NDPROXY encapsulates TAPI parameters, NDPROXY calls the NdisClRegisterSap function to make itself ready to receive incoming calls. In this function call, NDPROXY passes a pointer to the filled CO_SAP structure that specifies the Service Access Point (SAP) on which NDPROXY can receive incoming calls. NDIS forwards the CO_SAP structure to the ProtocolCmRegisterSap function of the CoNDIS WAN miniport call manager (MCM) driver. ProtocolCmRegisterSap communicates with network control devices or other media-specific agents, as necessary, to register the SAP on the network for NDPROXY. After the miniport driver has registered the SAP, it can accept an incoming-call offer directed to that SAP.

  • A CoNDIS WAN miniport driver is alerted to an incoming call by signaling messages from the network. From these signaling messages, the miniport driver extracts the call parameters for the call, including the SAP to which the incoming call is addressed.

  • Before indicating an incoming call to NDPROXY, the miniport driver calls the NdisMCmCreateVc function to initiate the creation of a VC with NDPROXY. NDPROXY allocates and initializes resources required for the VC and stores the handle to the VC.

  • The CoNDIS WAN miniport driver sets the TAPI parameters for an incoming call in a CO_AF_TAPI_INCOMING_CALL_PARAMETERS structure. The miniport driver fills this structure's members with the following information that was extracted from signaling messages:

    • Line identifier in the ulLineID member
    • Address of the incoming call in the ulAddressID member
    • CO_TAPI_FLAG_INCOMING_CALL bit in the ulFlags member. All other bits of ulFlags are reserved and must be set to 0.
    • LINECALLPARAMS structure in the LineCallInfo member. Members of LINECALLPARAMS specify TAPI call parameters for an incoming call.

  • The miniport driver overlays CO_AF_TAPI_INCOMING_CALL_PARAMETERS on the Parameters member of a CO_SPECIFIC_PARAMETERS structure and sets the Length member of CO_SPECIFIC_PARAMETERS to the size of CO_AF_TAPI_INCOMING_CALL_PARAMETERS.

  • The miniport driver sets the CO_SPECIFIC_PARAMETERS structure to the MediaSpecific member of a CO_MEDIA_PARAMETERS structure.

  • The miniport driver sets a pointer to the CO_MEDIA_PARAMETERS structure to the MediaParameters member of a CO_CALL_PARAMETERS structure.

  • The miniport driver must also set the CallMgrParameters member of the CO_CALL_PARAMETERS structure to specify the quality of service (QoS) of transferring packets, such as the bandwidth. To set this CallMgrParameters member, the miniport driver fills members of a CO_CALL_MANAGER_PARAMETERS structure and points this structure to CallMgrParameters. For example, to identify the transmit and receive speeds in bytes per second for the VC, the miniport driver must set the PeakBandwidth members of the Transmit and Receive members of CO_CALL_MANAGER_PARAMETERS. The Transmit and Receive members are FLOWSPEC structures. For more information about the FLOWSPEC structure, see the Windows SDK.

  • After the miniport driver encapsulates TAPI parameters and fills the CallMgrParameters member of CO_CALL_MANAGER_PARAMETERS, it calls the NdisMCmDispatchIncomingCall function to indicate the incoming call to NDPROXY. In this call, the miniport driver passes the following:

    • a handle that identifies the SAP to which the incoming call is addressed
    • a handle that identifies the VC for the incoming call
    • a pointer to the filled CO_CALL_PARAMETERS structure

  • NDPROXY returns NDIS_STATUS_PENDING to the miniport driver so NDPROXY can complete NdisMCmDispatchIncomingCall asynchronously.

  • After the TAPI application answers the incoming call with the lineAnswer function, NDPROXY calls the NdisClIncomingCallComplete function. NDIS in turn calls the miniport driver's ProtocolCmIncomingCallComplete function. If NDPROXY returns an NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS code, it indicates acceptance of the call parameters. If NDPROXY finds the call parameters unacceptable, it can request a change in the call parameters by setting the Flags member in the CO_CALL_PARAMETERS structure to CALL_PARAMETERS_CHANGED and by supplying revised call parameters. If NDPROXY accepts the incoming call, the miniport driver should send signaling messages to indicate to the calling entity that the call has been accepted. Otherwise, the miniport driver should send signaling messages to indicate that the call has been rejected. If NDPROXY is requesting a change in call parameters, the miniport driver sends signaling messages to request a change in call parameters.

  • The miniport driver activates the VC that the miniport driver created with NDPROXY and must also call the NdisMCmActivateVc function to notify NDPROXY that the miniport driver is ready to transfer packets on the VC.

  • If NDPROXY rejects the call, the miniport driver calls the NdisMCmDeactivateVc function to deactivate the VC that the miniport driver created for the incoming call. After the VC is deactivated, the miniport driver calls the NdisMCmDeleteVc function to delete the VC.

  • Depending on whether NDPROXY accepted the incoming call and whether the end-to-end connection was successfully established, the miniport driver calls either NdisMCmDispatchCallConnected or NdisMCmDispatchIncomingCloseCall functions. Note that if the remote calling entity tore down the call, it sends signaling messages to indicate that the end-to-end connection was not successfully established. NdisMCmDispatchCallConnected notifies NDPROXY that data transfers can begin on the VC that the miniport driver created and activated for the incoming call. NdisMCmDispatchIncomingCloseCall informs NDPROXY to tear down the incoming call.

  • If NDPROXY is directed to tear down the incoming call, it calls the NdisClCloseCall function to acknowledge that it will neither attempt to send nor expect to receive data on the VC. NDIS in turn calls the miniport driver's ProtocolCmCloseCall function. The miniport driver then calls the NdisMCmDeactivateVc function to deactivate the VC. After the VC is deactivated, the miniport driver calls the NdisMCmDeleteVc function to delete the VC.

  • After the TAPI application accepts the incoming call and NDPROXY notifies the application that the call is connected, the application calls the TAPI lineGetID function to inform NDPROXY to locate the appropriate CoNDIS client. In this lineGetID call, the TAPI application supplies a string for a particular TAPI device class to which the application requires a handle. NDPROXY uses this string to locate the CoNDIS client that previously registered a SAP for the particular TAPI device class. If the CoNDIS client is NDISWAN, the string is NDIS. If NDPROXY locates a SAP with a string that matches the string passed by the TAPI application, NDPROXY calls NdisMCmCreateVc to set up a connection endpoint with NDISWAN on which it can dispatch notification of the incoming call. NDIS in turn calls NDISWAN's ProtocolCoCreateVc function and passes a handle that represents the VC.

  • After NDPROXY sets up the connection endpoint with NDISWAN, it calls the NdisCmDispatchIncomingCall function to notify NDISWAN about the incoming call. In this call, NDPROXY passes the encapsulated CO_AF_TAPI_INCOMING_CALL_PARAMETERS structure that contains the incoming call parameters. NDIS in turn calls NDISWAN's ProtocolClIncomingCall function, within which NDISWAN either accepts or rejects the requested connection.

  • After deciding whether to accept the connection and after possibly changing the call parameters, NDISWAN calls the NdisClIncomingCallComplete function. NDIS in turn calls the miniport driver's ProtocolCmIncomingCallComplete function. Depending on whether NDISWAN accepted the incoming call and whether the miniport driver accepts or rejects NDISWAN's proposed changes to the call parameters, the miniport driver calls either NdisCmDispatchCallConnected or NdisCmDispatchIncomingCloseCall functions. NdisCmDispatchCallConnected notifies NDISWAN that data transfers can begin on the VC that the miniport driver created for the incoming call. NdisCmDispatchIncomingCloseCall informs NDISWAN and NDPROXY to tear down the incoming call.

  • After NDISWAN accepts the incoming call, NDPROXY calls the NdisCoGetTapiCallId function to retrieve a string that identifies NDISWAN's context for the VC. NDPROXY passes this string back to the TAPI application. The TAPI application uses this VC-context string to complete its call to lineGetID.
