Detailed Description

Virtual net device modeling mesh point.


Mesh point is a virtual net device which is responsible for

  • Aggregating and coordinating 1..* real devices – mesh interfaces, see MeshInterfaceDevice class.
  • Hosting all mesh-related level 2 protocols.

One of hosted L2 protocols must inplement L2RoutingProtocol interface and is used for packets forwarding.

From the level 3 point of view MeshPointDevice is similar to BridgeNetDevice, but the packets, which going through may be changed (because L2 protocols may require their own headers or tags).

Member Function Documentation

◆ AddInterface()

void ns3::MeshPointDevice::AddInterface ( Ptr< NetDevice port)

Attach new interface to the station.

Interface must support 48-bit MAC address and SendFrom method.

Parameters
portthe port used
Attention
Only MeshPointDevice can have IP address, but not individual interfaces.

◆ AddLinkChangeCallback()

void ns3::MeshPointDevice::AddLinkChangeCallback ( Callback< void >  callback)
virtual
Parameters
callbackthe callback to invoke

Add a callback invoked whenever the link status changes to UP. This callback is typically used by the IP/ARP layer to flush the ARP cache and by IPv6 stack to flush NDISC cache whenever the link goes up.

Implements ns3::NetDevice.

Definition at line 209 of file mesh-point-device.cc.

References NS_LOG_FUNCTION, and NS_LOG_WARN.

◆ DoDispose()

void ns3::MeshPointDevice::DoDispose ( void  )
virtual

Destructor implementation.

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

Subclasses are expected to implement their real destruction code in an overridden 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::Object.

◆ GetMulticast() [1/2]

Address ns3::MeshPointDevice::GetMulticast ( Ipv4Address  multicastGroup) const
virtual

Make and return a MAC multicast address using the provided multicast group.

RFC 1112 says that an Ipv4 host group address is mapped to an Ethernet multicast address by placing the low-order 23-bits of the IP address into the low-order 23 bits of the Ethernet multicast address 01-00-5E-00-00-00 (hex). Similar RFCs exist for Ipv6 and Eui64 mappings. This method performs the multicast address creation function appropriate to the underlying MAC address of the device. This MAC address is encapsulated in an abstract Address to avoid dependencies on the exact MAC address format.

In the case of net devices that do not support multicast, clients are expected to test NetDevice::IsMulticast and avoid attempting to map multicast packets. Subclasses of NetDevice that do support multicasting are expected to override this method and provide an implementation appropriate to the particular device.

Parameters
multicastGroupThe IP address for the multicast group destination of the packet.
Returns
The MAC multicast Address used to send packets to the provided multicast group.
Warning
Calling this method is invalid if IsMulticast returns not true.
