This module includes definitions related to Border Routing Manager.
All the functions in this module require OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_BORDER_ROUTING_ENABLE to be enabled.
Border Routing Manager handles bi-directional routing between Thread network and adjacent infrastructure link (AIL).
It emits ICMRv6 ND Router Advertisement (RA) messages on AIL to advertise on-link and route prefixes. It also processes received RA messages from infrastructure and mirrors the discovered prefixes on the Thread Network Data to ensure devices on Thread mesh can reach AIL through the Border Router.
Routing Manager manages the Off-Mesh Routable (OMR) prefix on the Thread Network data which configures Thread devices with a suitable Off-Mesh Routable IPv6 address. It announces the reachability of this prefix on AIL by including it in the emitted RA messages as an IPv6 Route Information Option (RIO).
Routing Manager also monitors and adds on-link prefix on the infrastructure network. If a router on AIL is already providing RA messages containing an IPv6 Prefix Information Option (PIO) that enables IPv6 devices on the link to self-configure their own routable unicast IPv6 address, this address can be used by Thread devices to reach AIL. If Border Router finds no such RA message on AIL, it generates a ULA on-link prefix which it then advertises on AIL in the emitted RA messages.
This structure represents an iterator to iterate through the Border Router's discovered prefix table.
The fields in this type are opaque (intended for use by OpenThread core only) and therefore should not be accessed or used by caller.
Before using an iterator, it MUST be initialized using otBorderRoutingPrefixTableInitIterator().
| typedef struct otBorderRoutingPrefixTableEntry otBorderRoutingPrefixTableEntry |
This structure represents an entry from the discovered prefix table.
The entries in the discovered table track the Prefix/Route Info Options in the received Router Advertisement messages from other routers on infrastructure link.
| otError otBorderRoutingInit | ( | otInstance * | aInstance, |
| uint32_t | aInfraIfIndex, | ||
| bool | aInfraIfIsRunning | ||
| ) |
This method initializes the Border Routing Manager on given infrastructure interface.
| [in] | aInstance | A pointer to an OpenThread instance. |
| [in] | aInfraIfIndex | The infrastructure interface index. |
| [in] | aInfraIfIsRunning | A boolean that indicates whether the infrastructure interface is running. |
| OT_ERROR_NONE | Successfully started the Border Routing Manager on given infrastructure. |
| OT_ERROR_INVALID_STATE | The Border Routing Manager has already been initialized. |
| OT_ERROR_INVALID_ARGS | The index of the infrastructure interface is not valid. |
| OT_ERROR_FAILED | Internal failure. Usually due to failure in generating random prefixes. |
| otError otBorderRoutingSetEnabled | ( | otInstance * | aInstance, |
| bool | aEnabled | ||
| ) |
Enables or disables the Border Routing Manager.
| [in] | aInstance | A pointer to an OpenThread instance. |
| [in] | aEnabled | A boolean to enable/disable the routing manager. |
| OT_ERROR_INVALID_STATE | The Border Routing Manager is not initialized yet. |

| otRoutePreference otBorderRoutingGetRouteInfoOptionPreference | ( | otInstance * | aInstance | ) |
This function gets the preference used when advertising Route Info Options (e.g., for discovered OMR prefixes) in Router Advertisement messages sent over the infrastructure link.
| [in] | aInstance | A pointer to an OpenThread instance. |
Referenced by Interpreter::SetUserCommands().
| void otBorderRoutingSetRouteInfoOptionPreference | ( | otInstance * | aInstance, |
| otRoutePreference | aPreference | ||
| ) |
This function sets the preference to use when advertising Route Info Options in Router Advertisement messages sent over the infrastructure link, for example for discovered OMR prefixes.
By default BR will use medium preference level, but this function allows the default value to be changed. As an example, it can be set to low preference in the case where device is a temporary BR (a mobile BR or a battery-powered BR) to indicate that other BRs (if any) should be preferred over this BR on the infrastructure link.
| [in] | aInstance | A pointer to an OpenThread instance. |
| [in] | aPreference | The route preference to use. |

| otError otBorderRoutingGetOmrPrefix | ( | otInstance * | aInstance, |
| otIp6Prefix * | aPrefix | ||
| ) |
Gets the local Off-Mesh-Routable (OMR) Prefix, for example fdfc:1ff5:1512:5622::/64.
An OMR Prefix is a randomly generated 64-bit prefix that's published in the Thread network if there isn't already an OMR prefix. This prefix can be reached from the local Wi-Fi or Ethernet network.
| [in] | aInstance | A pointer to an OpenThread instance. |
| [out] | aPrefix | A pointer to where the prefix will be output to. |
| OT_ERROR_INVALID_STATE | The Border Routing Manager is not initialized yet. |
| OT_ERROR_NONE | Successfully retrieved the OMR prefix. |

| otError otBorderRoutingGetFavoredOmrPrefix | ( | otInstance * | aInstance, |
| otIp6Prefix * | aPrefix, | ||
| otRoutePreference * | aPreference | ||
| ) |
Gets the currently favored Off-Mesh-Routable (OMR) Prefix.
The favored OMR prefix can be discovered from Network Data or can be this device's local OMR prefix.
| [in] | aInstance | A pointer to an OpenThread instance. |
| [out] | aPrefix | A pointer to output the favored OMR prefix. |
| [out] | aPreference | A pointer to output the preference associated the favored prefix. |
| OT_ERROR_INVALID_STATE | The Border Routing Manager is not initialized yet. |
| OT_ERROR_NONE | Successfully retrieved the favored OMR prefix. |

| otIp6Prefix * | aPrefix | ||

Gets the On-Link Prefix for the adjacent infrastructure link, for example fd41:2650:a6f5:0::/64.
An On-Link Prefix is a 64-bit prefix that's advertised on the infrastructure link if there isn't already a usable on-link prefix being advertised on the link.
| [in] | aInstance | A pointer to an OpenThread instance. |
| [out] | aPrefix | A pointer to where the prefix will be output to. |
