  85 .sp
  86 .LP
  87 The \fBdat_ia_query()\fR functions provides the Consumer with the IA
  88 parameters, as well as the IA and Provider attributes. Consumers pass in
  89 pointers to Consumer-allocated structures for the IA and Provider attributes
  90 that the Provider fills.
  91 .sp
  92 .LP
  93 The \fIia_attr_mask\fR and \fIprovider_attr_mask\fR parameters allow the
  94 Consumer to specify which attributes to query. The Provider returns values for
  95 requested attributes. The Provider can also return values for any of the other
  96 attributes.
  97 .SS "Interface Adapter Attributes"
  98 .sp
  99 .LP
 100 The IA attributes are common to all open instances of the IA. DAT defines a
 101 method to query the IA attributes but does not define a method to modify them.

 104 If IA is multiported, each port is presented to a Consumer as a separate IA.
