Member Function Documentation

Ipv4GlobalRoutingHelper* ns3::Ipv4GlobalRoutingHelper::Copy

(

void

)

const [virtual]

virtual constructor

Returns:

pointer to clone of this Ipv4RoutingHelper

This method is mainly for internal use by the other helpers; clients are expected to free the dynamic memory allocated by this method

Implements ns3::Ipv4RoutingHelper.

virtual Ptr<Ipv4RoutingProtocol> ns3::Ipv4GlobalRoutingHelper::Create

(

Ptr< Node >

node

)

const [virtual]

Parameters:

node

the node on which the routing protocol will run

Returns:

a newly-created routing protocol

This method will be called by ns3::InternetStackHelper::Install

Implements ns3::Ipv4RoutingHelper.

static void ns3::Ipv4GlobalRoutingHelper::PopulateRoutingTables

(

void

)

[static]

Build a routing database and initialize the routing tables of the nodes in the simulation. Makes all nodes in the simulation into routers.

All this function does is call the functions BuildGlobalRoutingDatabase () and InitializeRoutes ().

static void ns3::Ipv4GlobalRoutingHelper::RecomputeRoutingTables

(

void

)

[static]

Remove all routes that were previously installed in a prior call to either PopulateRoutingTables() or RecomputeRoutingTables(), and add a new set of routes.

This method does not change the set of nodes over which GlobalRouting is being used, but it will dynamically update its representation of the global topology before recomputing routes. Users must first call PopulateRoutingTables() and then may subsequently call RecomputeRoutingTables() at any later time in the simulation.
