Bind

Bind — STUN Binding Usage

Stability Level

Stable, unless otherwise indicated

Types and Values

Includes

#include <stun/usages/bind.h>

Description

The STUN Binding usage allows for easily creating and parsing STUN Binding requests and responses. It offers both an asynchronous and a synchronous API that uses the STUN timer usage.

Functions

stun_usage_bind_create ()

size_t
stun_usage_bind_create (StunAgent *agent,
                        StunMessage *msg,
                        uint8_t *buffer,
                        size_t buffer_len);

Create a new STUN binding request to use with a STUN server.

Parameters

agent

The StunAgent to use to create the binding request

 

msg

The StunMessage to build

 

buffer

The buffer to use for creating the StunMessage

 

buffer_len

The size of the buffer

 

Returns

The length of the built message.


stun_usage_bind_process ()

StunUsageBindReturn
stun_usage_bind_process (StunMessage *msg,
                         struct sockaddr *addr,
                         socklen_t *addrlen,
                         struct sockaddr *alternate_server,
                         socklen_t *alternate_server_len);

Process a STUN binding response and extracts the mapped address from the STUN message. Also checks for the ALTERNATE-SERVER attribute.

Parameters

msg

The StunMessage to process

 

addr

A pointer to a sockaddr structure to fill with the mapped address that the STUN server gives us

 

addrlen

The length of add . rMust be set to the size of the addr socket address and will be set to the actual length of the socket address.

 

alternate_server

A pointer to a sockaddr structure to fill with the address of an alternate server to which we should send our new STUN binding request, in case the currently used STUN server is requesting the use of an alternate server. This argument will only be filled if the return value of the function is STUN_USAGE_BIND_RETURN_ALTERNATE_SERVER

 

alternate_server_len

The length of alternate_server . Must be set to the size of the alternate_server socket address and will be set to the actual length of the socket address.

 

Returns

A StunUsageBindReturn value. Note that STUN_USAGE_BIND_RETURN_TIMEOUT cannot be returned by this function


stun_usage_bind_keepalive ()

size_t
stun_usage_bind_keepalive (StunAgent *agent,
                           StunMessage *msg,
                           uint8_t *buf,
                           size_t len);

Creates a STUN binding indication that can be used for a keepalive. Since this is an indication message, no STUN response will be generated and it can only be used as a keepalive message.

Parameters

agent

The StunAgent to use to build the message

 

msg

The StunMessage to build

 

buf

The buffer to use for creating the StunMessage

 

len

The size of the buf

 

Returns

The length of the message to send


stun_usage_bind_run ()

StunUsageBindReturn
stun_usage_bind_run (const struct sockaddr *srv,
                     socklen_t srvlen,
                     struct sockaddr_storage *addr,
                     socklen_t *addrlen);

This is a convenience function that will do a synchronous Binding request to a server and wait for its answer. It will create the socket transports and use the StunTimer usage to send the request and handle the response.

Parameters

srv

A pointer to the sockaddr structure representing the STUN server's address

 

srvlen

The length of srv

 

addr

A pointer to a sockaddr structure to fill with the mapped address that the STUN server gives us

 

addrlen

The length of addr

 

Types and Values

enum StunUsageBindReturn

Return value of stun_usage_bind_process() and stun_usage_bind_run() which allows you to see what status the function call returned.

Members

STUN_USAGE_BIND_RETURN_SUCCESS

The binding usage succeeded

 

STUN_USAGE_BIND_RETURN_ERROR

There was an unknown error in the bind usage

 

STUN_USAGE_BIND_RETURN_INVALID

The message is invalid and should be ignored

 

STUN_USAGE_BIND_RETURN_ALTERNATE_SERVER

The binding request has an ALTERNATE-SERVER attribute

 

STUN_USAGE_BIND_RETURN_TIMEOUT

The binding was unsuccessful because it has timed out.
