Detailed Description

A Udp client.

Config Paths

ns3::UdpClient is accessible through the following paths with Config::Set and Config::Connect:

  • /NodeList/[i]/ApplicationList/[i]/$ns3::UdpClient

Attributes

  • MaxPackets: The maximum number of packets the application will send
  • Interval: The time to wait between packets
    • Set with class: ns3::TimeValue
    • Underlying type: Time –9223372036854775808.0ns:+9223372036854775807.0ns
    • Initial value: +1000000000.0ns
    • Flags: construct write read
  • RemoteAddress: The destination Address of the outbound packets
    • Set with class: AddressValue
    • Underlying type: Address
    • Initial value: 00-00-00
    • Flags: construct write read
  • RemotePort: The destination port of the outbound packets
  • PacketSize: Size of packets generated. The minimum packet size is 12 bytes which is the size of the header carrying the sequence number and the time stamp.

Attributes defined in parent class ns3::Application

  • StartTime: Time at which the application will start
    • Set with class: ns3::TimeValue
    • Underlying type: Time –9223372036854775808.0ns:+9223372036854775807.0ns
    • Initial value: +0.0ns
    • Flags: construct write read
  • StopTime: Time at which the application will stop
    • Set with class: ns3::TimeValue
    • Underlying type: Time –9223372036854775808.0ns:+9223372036854775807.0ns
    • Initial value: +0.0ns
    • Flags: construct write read

No TraceSources are defined for this type.

Member Function Documentation

void ns3::UdpClient::DoDispose ( void  )
protectedvirtual

This method is called by Object::Dispose or by the object's destructor, whichever comes first.

Subclasses are expected to implement their real destruction code in an overriden version of this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. i.e., for simplicity, the destructor of every subclass should be empty and its content should be moved to the associated DoDispose method.

It is safe to call GetObject from within this method.

Reimplemented from ns3::Application.
