GetClientId

Takes a type-0x1A output buffer containing a #ClientId, no output.

The wrapper for this with official sw will return 0 when any errors occur (wrapper returns #ClientId not Result).

CreateScanRequest

No input, returns an output #IScanRequest.

CreateRequest

Takes an input s32 "nn::nifm::RequirementPreset", returns an output #IRequest.

sdknso loads the s32 from "nn::nifm::RequestParameters", which has hard-coded value 0x2.

GetCurrentNetworkProfile

Takes a type-0x1A output buffer containing a #SfNetworkProfileData.

sdknso converts the output to #NetworkProfileData.

GetNetworkProfile

Takes an input "nn::util::Uuid" (same Uuid from #SfNetworkProfileData) and a type-0x1A output buffer containing a #SfNetworkProfileData.

sdknso converts the output to #NetworkProfileData.

SetNetworkProfile

Takes a type-0x19 input buffer containing a #SfNetworkProfileData and returns an output "nn::util::Uuid".

sdknso converts the input to #SfNetworkProfileData, which is then passed to the cmd.

This is only available with nifm:a.

GetCurrentIpAddress

No input, returns an output #IpV4Address.

GetCurrentIpConfigInfo

No input, returns an output #IpAddressSetting and a #DnsSetting.

IsAnyInternetRequestAccepted

Takes a type-0x19 input buffer containing a #ClientId, returns an output u8 bool.

The wrapper for this with official sw will return 0 when any errors occur (wrapper returns bool not Result).

GetRequestState

Number Description
0 Set by sdknso when the cmd returns an error.
1 Not yet submitted or error
2 Pending (sdknso calls this OnHold)
3 Connected (sdknso calls this Available)
5

GetResult

No input/output.

If the request enters state 1, this command can be used to determine why. It responds with the nice networking error codes that there are support pages for.

GetSystemEventReadableHandles

No input, returns two Event handles. The first one signals when the RequestState changes.

This is used immediately after #CreateRequest.

sdknso uses EventClearMode=1 for the first Event, for the second Event this can be user-specified or a default value of 1.

Cancel

No input/output.

Cancels the request to bring the network up.

Submit

No input/output.

Submits the request to bring the network up. Call this after configuring the request.

SetRequirement

Takes a total of 0x20-bytes of input, no output.

[3.0.0+] Takes an additional 4-bytes of input.

SetConnectionConfirmationOption

Set how to verify the internet connection.

Option Description
0
1
2 "Local" network (does not check for working DNS)
3
4 Default
5

SetPersistent

If this is set, when the network connection is lost, rather than causing the request to enter state 1, it will instead enter state 2 and attempt to bring the network back up again.

GetRequirement

No input, returns a total of 0x20-bytes of output.

[3.0.0+] Returns an additional 4-bytes of output.

GetAppletInfo

Takes an input u32, a type-0x6 output buffer, and 3 output u32s.

sdknso uses the output from this to launch a LibraryApplet.

The input u32 is set to the output from nn::applet::GetExpectedThemeColorForSystem().

The output u32s are: AppletId, LibraryAppletMode, out_size.

sdknso uses size 0x1000 for the buffer.

The out_size is the total data size written to the output buffer. The buffer contains an array of: {s32 size} {data with the specified size}, with size==-1 indicating that the end of the array was reached. The data from here is pushed as applet input storage.

The returned AppletId is one of the following: error, wifiWebAuth, or netConnect.
