Reconnection strategy

The SDK provides automatic network reconnection handling when the user switches between networks. This document outlines the reconnection logic and how to configure the SDK's reconnection behavior.

Default Reconnection Behavior

By default, the SDK will automatically handle network reconnection when the user switches between networks. The SDK's behavior in different scenarios is as follows:

VPN ON and Network Connection Disabled

  • If VPN is ON and the user disables the network connection, the SDK transfers to the PAUSED state.

  • After the network connection is re-enabled, the SDK automatically connects to the last successful configuration.

Transport Error During Connection

  • If a transport error occurs during connection, the SDK will attempt to reconnect automatically.

  • However, there are certain exceptions where automatic reconnection will not occur:

Error Code
Description

CODE_NOT_AUTHORIZED

The user is not authorized. In this case, you need to call HydraSdk.login to re-authenticate.

CODE_SESSIONS_EXCEED

The session limit is reached in accordance with the Terms of Service (ToS).

CODE_DEVICES_EXCEED

The devices limit is reached in accordance with the ToS.

CODE_OAUTH_ERROR

An authentication error occurred on the OAuth server.

CODE_TRAFFIC_EXCEED

The traffic limit is exceeded in accordance with the ToS.

USER_SUSPENDED

The user account is suspended.

Disabling Automatic Reconnection

To disable the automatic reconnection behavior, you can use the following method:

UnifiedSDK.setReconnectionEnabled(false);

By calling setReconnectionEnabled(false), the SDK will not attempt to reconnect automatically when network switches occur or transport errors happen. You will need to handle reconnection manually in your application logic.
