Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ns3::CsmaStarHelper::CsmaStarHelper	(	uint32_t	numSpokes,
		CsmaHelper	csmaHelper
	)

Create a CsmaStarHelper in order to easily create star topologies using Csma links

Parameters:

	numSpokes	the number of links attached to the hub node, creating a total of numSpokes + 1 nodes
	csmaHelper	the link helper for Csma links, used to link nodes together
