NAME
     netinjectt - structure for describing how  to  transmit  a
     packet

SYNOPSIS
     #include 


INTERFACE LEVEL
     Solaris DI specific (Solaris DI).

DESCRIPTION
     The netinjectt data structure  passes  information  in  to
     netinject about how to transmit a packet. Transmit includes
     sending the packet up into the system as well as out of it.

STRUCTURE MEMBERS
        mblkt                  *nipacket;   /* start of the packet */
         struct sockaddrstorage niaddr;      /* address of next hop */
         phyift                niphysical;  /* network interface to use */


     nipacket      Pointer to the first the mblkt  data  struc-
                    ture that makes up this packet.


     niaddr        This field is only required to be initialized
                    if  NIDIRECTOUT  is  being used to transmit
                    the packet. The sockaddrstorage  field  must
                    be  set  to  indicate whether the destination
                    address contained in the  structure  is  IPv4
                    (cast  niaddr to struct sockaddrin) or IPv6
                    (cast niaddr to struct sockaddrin6).


     niphysical    The physical interface where the packet  will
                    be injected.
