Detailed Description

This section documents the API of the ns-3 network module.

For a generic functional description, please refer to the ns-3 manual.

Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* ns3::TracedValueCallback::DataRate) (DataRate oldValue, DataRate newValue)

TracedValue callback signature for DataRate.

Parameters

[in]	oldValue	original value of the traced variable
[in]	newValue	new value of the traced variable

Definition at line 316 of file data-rate.h.

Types of ethernet packets.

Indicates the type of the current header.

Enumerator

LENGTH

Basic ethernet packet, no tags, type/length field indicates packet length or IP/ARP packet.

VLAN

Single tagged packet.

Header includes VLAN tag

QINQ

Double tagged packet.

Header includes two VLAN tags
