VcnManager publishes APIs for applications to configure and manage Virtual Carrier Networks.
A VCN creates a virtualization layer to allow carriers to aggregate heterogeneous physical networks, unifying them as a single carrier network. This enables infrastructure flexibility on the part of carriers without impacting user connectivity, abstracting the physical network technologies as an implementation detail of their public network.
Each VCN virtualizes a carrier's network by building tunnels to a carrier's core network over
carrier-managed physical links and supports a IP mobility layer to ensure seamless transitions
between the underlying networks. Each VCN is configured based on a Subscription Group (see SubscriptionManager
) and aggregates all networks that are brought up based on
a profile or suggestion in the specified Subscription Group.
The VCN can be configured to expose one or more Network
(s), each with
different capabilities, allowing for APN virtualization.
If a tunnel fails to connect, or otherwise encounters a fatal error, the VCN will attempt to reestablish the connection. If the tunnel still has not reconnected after a system-determined timeout, the VCN Safe Mode (see below) will be entered.
The VCN Safe Mode ensures that users (and carriers) have a fallback to restore system connectivity to update profiles, diagnose issues, contact support, or perform other remediation tasks. In Safe Mode, the system will allow underlying cellular networks to be used as default. Additionally, during Safe Mode, the VCN will continue to retry the connections, and will automatically exit Safe Mode if all active tunnels connect successfully.

Inherited methods | |
---|---|
public static final int VCN_ERROR_CODE_CONFIG_ERROR
Value indicating that an error with this Gateway Connection's configuration occurred.
For example, this error code will be returned after authentication failures.
Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)
public static final int VCN_ERROR_CODE_INTERNAL_ERROR
Value indicating that an internal failure occurred in this Gateway Connection.
Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)
public static final int VCN_ERROR_CODE_NETWORK_ERROR
Value indicating that a Network error occurred with this Gateway Connection.
For example, this error code will be returned if an underlying Network
for this Gateway Connection is lost, or if an error occurs while resolving the connection
endpoint address.
Constant Value: 2 (0x00000002)
public static final int VCN_STATUS_CODE_ACTIVE
Value indicating that the VCN for the subscription group is active.
A VCN is active if a VcnConfig
is present for the subscription, the provisioning
package is privileged, and the VCN is not in Safe Mode. In other words, a VCN is considered
active while it is connecting, fully connected, and disconnecting.
Constant Value: 2 (0x00000002)
public static final int VCN_STATUS_CODE_INACTIVE
Value indicating that the VCN for the subscription group is inactive.
A VCN is inactive if a VcnConfig
is present for the subscription group, but the
provisioning package is not privileged.
Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)
public static final int VCN_STATUS_CODE_NOT_CONFIGURED
Value indicating that the VCN for the subscription group is not configured, or that the callback is not privileged for the subscription group.
Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)
public static final int VCN_STATUS_CODE_SAFE_MODE
Value indicating that the VCN for the subscription group is in Safe Mode.
A VCN will be put into Safe Mode if any of the gateway connections were unable to establish a connection within a system-determined timeout (while underlying networks were available).
Constant Value: 3 (0x00000003)
public void clearVcnConfig (ParcelUuid subscriptionGroup)
Clears the VCN configuration for a given subscription group.
An app that has carrier privileges for any of the subscriptions in the given group may
clear a VCN configuration. This API is ONLY permitted for callers running as the primary
user. Any active VCN will be torn down.
Requires carrier privileges
Parameters | |
---|---|
subscriptionGroup |
ParcelUuid : the subscription group that the configuration should be applied to
This value cannot be null . |
Throws | |
---|---|
SecurityException |
if the caller does not have carrier privileges, or is not running as the primary user |
IOException |
if the configuration failed to be cleared from disk. This may occur due to temporary disk errors, or more permanent conditions such as a full disk. |
public List<ParcelUuid> getConfiguredSubscriptionGroups ()
Retrieves the list of Subscription Groups for which a VCN Configuration has been set.
The returned list will include only subscription groups for which the carrier app is
privileged, and which have an associated VcnConfig
.
Returns | |
---|---|
List<ParcelUuid> |
This value cannot be null . |
Throws | |
---|---|
SecurityException |
if the caller is not running as the primary user |
public void registerVcnStatusCallback (ParcelUuid subscriptionGroup, Executor executor, VcnManager.VcnStatusCallback callback)
Registers the given callback to receive status updates for the specified subscription.
Callbacks can be registered for a subscription before VcnConfig
s are set for it.
A VcnStatusCallback
may only be registered for one subscription at a time. VcnStatusCallback
s may be reused once unregistered.
A VcnStatusCallback
will only be invoked if the registering package has carrier
privileges for the specified subscription at the time of invocation.
A VcnStatusCallback
is eligible to begin receiving callbacks once it is registered
and there is a VCN active for its specified subscription group (this may happen after the
callback is registered).
VcnStatusCallback#onStatusChanged(int)
will be invoked on registration with the
current status for the specified subscription group's VCN. If the registrant is not
privileged for this subscription group, VCN_STATUS_CODE_NOT_CONFIGURED
will be
returned.
Parameters | |
---|---|
subscriptionGroup |
ParcelUuid : The subscription group to match for callbacks
This value cannot be null . |
executor |
Executor : The Executor to be used for invoking callbacks
This value cannot be null . |
callback |
VcnManager.VcnStatusCallback : The VcnStatusCallback to be registered
This value cannot be null . |
Throws | |
---|---|
IllegalStateException |
if callback is currently registered with VcnManager |
public void setVcnConfig (ParcelUuid subscriptionGroup, VcnConfig config)
Sets the VCN configuration for a given subscription group.
An app that has carrier privileges for any of the subscriptions in the given group may set a VCN configuration. If a configuration already exists for the given subscription group, it will be overridden. Any active VCN(s) may be forced to restart to use the new configuration.
This API is ONLY permitted for callers running as the primary user.
