L2capNetworkSpecifier

Kotlin |Java

public final class L2capNetworkSpecifier
extends NetworkSpecifier implements Parcelable

java.lang.Object
↳	android.net.NetworkSpecifier
	↳	android.net.L2capNetworkSpecifier

---

A NetworkSpecifier used to identify an L2CAP network over BLE. An L2CAP network is not symmetrical, meaning there exists both a server (Bluetooth peripheral) and a client (Bluetooth central) node. This specifier contains the information required to request a client L2CAP network using ConnectivityManager.requestNetwork while specifying the remote MAC address, and Protocol/Service Multiplexer (PSM). It can also contain information allocated by the system when reserving a server network using ConnectivityManager.reserveNetwork(NetworkRequest, Handler, NetworkCallback) such as the Protocol/Service Multiplexer (PSM). In both cases, the header compression option must be specified. An L2CAP server network allocates a Protocol/Service Multiplexer (PSM) to be advertised to the client. A new server network must always be reserved using ConnectivityManager#reserveNetwork. The subsequent ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback.onReserved(android.net.NetworkCapabilities) callback includes an L2CapNetworkSpecifier. The ERROR(/getPsm()) method will return the Protocol/Service Multiplexer (PSM) of the reserved network so that the server can advertise it to the client and the client can connect. An L2CAP server network is backed by a BluetoothServerSocket which can, in theory, accept many connections. However, before SDK version ERROR(/Build.VERSION_CODES.VANILLA_ICE_CREAM) Bluetooth APIs do not expose the channel ID, so these connections are indistinguishable. In practice, this means that the network matching semantics in ConnectivityService will tear down all but the first connection. When the connection between client and server completes, a Network whose capabilities satisfy this L2capNetworkSpecifier will connect and the usual callbacks, such as ERROR(/NetworkCallback#onAvailable), will be called on the callback object passed to ConnectivityManager#reserveNetwork or ConnectivityManager#requestNetwork.

public static final int HEADER_COMPRESSION_NONE

Do not compress packets on this network.

Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)

Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)

ROLE_ANY

describeContents

Added in Android Baklava

public int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.
