Prerequisite

  • Ensure that the Wizarview agent version on the device is greater than 5.3.39 to use this feature.

Steps to Control Network Usage

  • Prepare the Broadcast Intent:
    • You will need to send a broadcast intent to control the network usage of the Wizarview agent.
    • The action for the intent should be set to: 'android.intent.action.NET_USE_CONTROL'.
  • Set the Extra Value:
    • Along with the action, you need to include an extra value in the broadcast.
    • The extra value should have the name 'net_use_control_flag'.
    • The value for this should be either 'enable' or 'disable', depending on whether you want to activate or deactivate the network usage.
  • Enable
  Intent enableIntent = new Intent();
  enableIntent.putExtra("net_use_control_flag", "enable");
  enableIntent.setAction("android.intent.action.NET_USE_CONTROL");
  getApplicationContext().sendBroadcast(enableIntent);
  • Disable
  Intent disableIntent = new Intent();
  disableIntent.putExtra("net_use_control_flag", "disable");
  disableIntent.setAction("android.intent.action.NET_USE_CONTROL");
  getApplicationContext().sendBroadcast(disableIntent);

Note:

  • It's important to correctly implement this broadcast mechanism, as incorrect usage could lead to unintended behaviors in the Wizarview agent's network management.
  • This feature is particularly useful for customers who need precise control over their device's network activities for efficiency or security reasons.
