Network function calls

The following table provides a brief description and a link to each API function.

API function	Description
DTL_C_CONNECT	Initiates a communication session with the specified network interface.
DTL_DISCONNECT	Terminates a communication session with the specified network interface.

TIP: RSLinx Classic does not require you to use these network functions. They are included only to make the RSLinx Classic C API more compatible with the INTERCHANGE C API. You must choose either the network or the driver API functions, but not both. Rockwell Automation recommends using the driver functions because they are more in line with the architecture of RSLinx Classic.
