Detailed Description

The aim of the QosTag is to provide means for an Application to specify the TID which will be used by a QoS-aware WifiMac for a given traffic flow.

Introspection did not find any typical Config paths.

Note that the current QosTag class was designed to be completely mac/wifi specific without any attempt at being generic.


Attributes

  • tid: The tid that indicates AC which packet belongs

No TraceSources are defined for this type.
Size of this type is 16 bytes (on a 64-bit architecture).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ns3::QosTag::QosTag ( )

Create a QosTag with the default TID = 0 (best effort traffic)

Definition at line 50 of file qos-tag.cc.

ns3::QosTag::QosTag ( uint8_t  tid)

Create a QosTag with the given Traffic ID.

Parameters
tidthe given Traffic ID

Definition at line 54 of file qos-tag.cc.

Member Function Documentation

void ns3::QosTag::Deserialize ( TagBuffer  i)
virtual
Parameters
ithe buffer to read data from.

Read the content of the tag from the provided tag buffer. DO NOT attempt to read more bytes than you wrote with Tag::Serialize.

Implements ns3::Tag.

Definition at line 84 of file qos-tag.cc.

References m_tid, and ns3::TagBuffer::ReadU8().

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

TypeId ns3::QosTag::GetInstanceTypeId ( void  ) const
virtual

Get the most derived TypeId for this Object.

This method is typically implemented by ns3::Object::GetInstanceTypeId but some classes which derive from ns3::ObjectBase directly have to implement it themselves.

Returns
The TypeId associated to the most-derived type of this instance.

Implements ns3::ObjectBase.

Definition at line 45 of file qos-tag.cc.

References GetTypeId().

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

uint32_t ns3::QosTag::GetSerializedSize ( ) const
virtual
Returns
the number of bytes required to serialize the data of the tag.

This method is typically invoked by Packet::AddPacketTag or Packet::AddByteTag just prior to calling Tag::Serialize.

Implements ns3::Tag.

Definition at line 72 of file qos-tag.cc.

uint8_t ns3::QosTag::GetTid ( void  ) const

Return the Type ID.

Returns
type ID

+ Here is the caller graph for this function:

void ns3::QosTag::Print ( std::ostream &  os) const
virtual
Parameters
osthe stream to print to

This method is typically invoked from the Packet::PrintByteTags or Packet::PrintPacketTags methods.

Implements ns3::Tag.

Definition at line 96 of file qos-tag.cc.

References m_tid.

void ns3::QosTag::Serialize ( TagBuffer  i) const
virtual
Parameters
ithe buffer to write data into.

Write the content of the tag in the provided tag buffer. DO NOT attempt to write more bytes than you requested with Tag::GetSerializedSize.

Implements ns3::Tag.

Definition at line 78 of file qos-tag.cc.

References m_tid, and ns3::TagBuffer::WriteU8().

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

void ns3::QosTag::SetTid ( uint8_t  tid)

Set the TID to the given value.

This assumes that the application is aware of the QoS support provided by the MAC layer, and is therefore able to set the correct TID.

Parameters
tidthe value of the TID to set

Definition at line 60 of file qos-tag.cc.

References m_tid.

void ns3::QosTag::SetUserPriority ( UserPriority  up)

Set the TID to the value that corresponds to the requested UserPriority.

Note that, since the mapping of UserPriority to TID is defined for EDCA only, you should call this method only when EDCA is used. When using HDCA, QosTag(uint8_t tid) should be used instead.

Parameters
upthe requested UserPriority
