What is NetFUNNEL iOS Agent?

A NetFUNNEL agent is a kind of NetFUNNEL-specific client that communicates with a NetFUNNEL server. Users can apply virtual waiting rooms by using and implementing various functions provided by the agent in the client application code they want to apply.

Features

• It communicates with the NetFUNNEL server based on the domain address registered in the NetFUNNEL Console to provide waiting and blocking window functions at specific points.
• To utilize the End User Monitoring (EUM) feature, it collects device status information and data on how long it takes to process tasks in the set section.

Requirements

• Supports iOS 12 and later
• Available in Storyboard(obj-c, swift) and Swift UI

WEB Agent Technical Overview

The NetFUNNEL agent has the following technical process.

1. Before waiting
   • Initialize configuration information before waiting. This is the process of retrieving configuration information from the NetFUNNEL server so that the agent can initialize objects based on this information.
   • Use the separately provided initialization function to initialize the NetFUNNEL agent's configuration information.
2. Waiting on 
   • To apply a virtual waiting room to a specific part of a page (view or activity) that requires traffic management, use the Wait-Start function provided separately.
   • Use the separately provided Wait-Start function to apply the virtual waiting room.
3. After waiting
   • The process after the wait has ended. There are three ways a user can end a wait: successful entry, failed entry, or aborted wait.
   • Implement the post-wait logic using the delegate and completion functions provided separately.
