// Network topology

//         bridge1         The node named bridge1 (node 5 in the nodelist)
//   ------------------        has three CMSA net devices that are bridged
//   CSMA   CSMA   CSMA        together using a BridgeNetDevice.
//     |      |      |
//     |      |      |     The bridge node talks over three CSMA channels
//     |      |      |
//   CSMA   CSMA   CSMA    to three other CSMA net devices
//   ----   ----   ----
//    n0     n1     n2     Node two acts as a router and talks to another
//                 ----        bridge that connects the remaining nodes.
//                 CSMA
//                   |

//   CSMA   CSMA   CSMA    The node named bridge2 (node 6 in the nodelist)
//   ------------------        has three CMSA net devices that are bridged
//        bridge2              together using a BridgeNetDevice.
//
// Or, more abstractly, recognizing that bridge 1 and bridge 2 are nodes 
// with three net devices:
//
//        n0     n1                (n0 = 10.1.1.2)
//        |      |                 (n1 = 10.1.1.3)  Note odd addressing
//       -----------               (n2 = 10.1.1.1)
//       | bridge1 | <- n5
//       -----------
//           |
//         router    <- n2
//           |
//       -----------
//       | bridge2 | <- n6
//       -----------               (n2 = 10.1.2.1)
//        |      |                 (n3 = 10.1.2.2)
//        n3     n4                (n4 = 10.1.2.3)
//
// So, this example shows two broadcast domains, each interconnected by a bridge
// with a router node (n2) interconnecting the layer-2 broadcast domains
// 
// It is meant to mirror somewhat the csma-bridge example but adds another
// bridged link separated by a router.
// 
// - CBR/UDP flows from n0 (10.1.1.2) to n1 (10.1.1.3) and from n3 (10.1.2.2) to n0 (10.1.1.3)
// - DropTail queues 
// - Global static routing
// - Tracing of queues and packet receptions to file "csma-bridge-one-hop.tr"
