Detailed Description

A Udp client.


Sends UDP packet carrying sequence number and time stamp in their payloads

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
    • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
    • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
    • Initial value: 100
    • Flags: construct write read
  • Interval: The time to wait between packets
    • Set with class: ns3::TimeValue
    • Underlying type: Time -9.22337e+18ns:+9.22337e+18ns
    • Initial value: +1e+09ns

  • RemoteAddress: The destination Address of the outbound packets
    • Set with class: AddressValue
    • Underlying type: Address
    • Initial value: 00-00-00
    • Flags: construct write read

    • Initial value: 100
    • Flags: construct write read
  • 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.
    • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
    • Underlying type: uint32_t 12:65507
    • Initial value: 1024
    • Flags: construct write read

Attributes defined in parent class ns3::Application

    • Underlying type: Time -9.22337e+18ns:+9.22337e+18ns
    • Initial value: +0ns
    • Flags: construct write read

No TraceSources are defined for this type.
Size of this type is 192 bytes (on a 64-bit architecture).

Member Function Documentation

◆ DoDispose()

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

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::Application.

◆ GetTotalTx()

uint64_t ns3::UdpClient::GetTotalTx ( ) const
Returns
