Detailed Description

Packet header for UDP packets.

Doxygen introspection did not find any typical Config paths.

This class has fields corresponding to those in a network UDP header (port numbers, payload size, checksum) as well as methods for serialization to and deserialization from a byte buffer.


No Attributes are defined for this type.
No TraceSources are defined for this type.

uint16_t ns3::UdpHeader::CalculateHeaderChecksum ( uint16_t  size) const

uint32_t ns3::UdpHeader::Deserialize ( Buffer::Iterator  start)
virtual
Parameters
startan iterator which points to where the header should written.
Returns
the number of bytes read.

This method is used by Packet::RemoveHeader to re-create a header from the byte buffer of a packet. The data read is expected to match bit-for-bit the representation of this header in real networks.

+ Here is the caller graph for this function:

void ns3::UdpHeader::ForceChecksum ( uint16_t  checksum)

Force the UDP checksum to a given value.

This might be useful for test purposes or to restore the UDP checksum when the UDP header has been compressed (e.g., in 6LoWPAN). Note that, normally, the header checksum is calculated on the fly when the packet is serialized.

When this option is used, the UDP checksum is written in the header, regardless of the global ChecksumEnabled option.

Note
The checksum value must be a big endian number.
Parameters
checksumthe checksum to use (big endian).

payloadSizethe payload length to use.

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

This method is used by Packet::AddHeader to store a header into the byte buffer of a packet. This method should return the number of bytes which are needed to store the full header data by Serialize.

virtual
Parameters
osoutput stream This method is used by Packet::Print to print the content of a trailer as ascii data to a c++ output stream. Although the trailer is free to format its output as it wishes, it is recommended to follow a few rules to integrate with the packet pretty printer: start with flags, small field values located between a pair of parens. Values should be separated by whitespace. Follow the parens with the important fields, separated by whitespace. i.e.: (field1 val1 field2 val2 field3 val3) field4 val4 field5 val5
