ANMS_FUN_DAP_002 (Received Reports): Data Types

[d-linko]

A request for a BP agent full report was created using the Build tab, submitted through the Agent tab, and the results were viewed on the Agent and Monitor tabs.

The report results displayed on the Agents tab corresponded to the ADM (Bundle Protocol Agent Application Data Model draft-birrane-dtn-adm-bp-03). The report values were reviewed in the Monitor tab Received Reports panel. The data values appeared to be present in this panel, but most of the values listed in the UVAST column were specified as UINT in the ADM. The database table, vw_rpt_entries, for this report corresponds to the Received Reports for the UVAST data.

The database table vw_rpt_entries has columns for UINT and UVAST values.

From Asynchronous Management Protocol draft-birrane-dtn-amp-08:
• UINT: unsigned integer: UINTs are unsigned integers from uint8_t integer up to uint32_t.
• UVAST: unsigned integer: VASTs are unsigned integers up to integer uint64_t.

Is there a reason for storing and displaying these values as UVAST rather than the specified UINT in the ADM?
