NAME
     netprotocolwalk - step through the list of registered net-
     work protocols

SYNOPSIS
     #include 

     netdatat *netprotocolwalk(netdatat net);


INTERFACE LEVEL
     Solaris DI specific (Solaris DI).

PARAMETERS
     net    value   returned   from   a   successful   call    to
            netprotocollookup(9F).


DESCRIPTION
     The netprotocolwalk() function walks through  all  of  the
     network protocols that have been registered with this inter-
     face. The initial call to netprotocolwalk() should be made
     by  passing in NUL as the value for net. When this function
     returns NUL, the end of the list has been reached.


     A caller of netprotocolwalk() is required to walk  through
     the entire list of network protocols, until NUL is returned
     or, when finished with using the  value  returned,  pass  it
     into a call to netprotocolrelease(9F).

RETURN VALUES
     The netprotocolwalk() function returns NUL when  the  end
     of  the  list  is returned. Otherwise, it returns a non-NUL
     value as a token for being passed into other function  calls
     within this interface.

CONTEXT
     The netprotocolwalk() function may be  called  from  user,
     kernel, or interrupt context.
