Network interfaces

The QNX CAR platform supports connections to mobile devices over Ethernet, Wi-Fi, 3G, and LTE.

The io-pkt resource manager is the low-level interface to networking/connectivity options such as wired Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and other radio devices (3G/LTE). The io-pkt resource manager integrates low-level drivers and the TCP/IP stack as well as a number of technologies for managing network connections.

PPS is used for controlling the various components contained in io-pkt. Overall network management includes:

• APIs for network control planes
• coordination of system-wide network configuration (preferred/default network interfaces, routes, and resolver configuration)
• general networking information details and device information
