otExternalRouteConfig struct

Parses the argument as a External Route configuration.

Outputs the route config.

Get the next external route in the partition's Network Data.

Requests an external route prefix to be published in the Thread Network Data. Requires the feature `OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_BORDER_ROUTER_ENABLE` to be enabled. Only stable entries can be published (i.e.,`aConfig.mStable` MUST be TRUE). A subsequent call to this method will replace a previous request for the same prefix. In particular, if the new call only changes the flags (e.g., preference level) and the prefix is already added in the Network Data, the change to flags is immediately reflected in the Network Data. This ensures that existing entries in the Network Data are not abruptly removed. Note that a change in the preference level can potentially later cause the entry to be removed from the Network Data after determining there are other nodes that are publishing the same prefix with the same or higher preference.

Replaces a previously published external route in the Thread Network Data. Requires the feature `OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_BORDER_ROUTER_ENABLE` to be enabled. If there is no previously published external route matching @p aPrefix, this function behaves similarly to `otNetDataPublishExternalRoute()`, i.e., it will start the process of publishing @a aConfig as an external route in the Thread Network Data. If there is a previously published route entry matching @p aPrefix, it will be replaced with the new prefix from @p aConfig. - If the @p aPrefix was already added in the Network Data, the change to the new prefix in @p aConfig is immediately reflected in the Network Data. This ensures that route entries in the Network Data are not abruptly removed and the transition from aPrefix to the new prefix is smooth. - If the old published @p aPrefix was not added in the Network Data, it will be replaced with the new @p aConfig prefix but it will not be immediately added. Instead, it will start the process of publishing it in the Network Data (monitoring the Network Data to determine when/if to add the prefix, depending on the number of similar prefixes present in the Network Data).

Gets the next external route in the local Network Data.

Converts the flags from a given route config to string.

Add an external route configuration to the local network data. @sa otBorderRouterRemoveRoute @sa otBorderRouterRegister
