◆ DeaggregateAmsduAndForward()

void ns3::ApWifiMac::DeaggregateAmsduAndForward ( Ptr< WifiMacQueueItem > mpdu )

privatevirtual

This method is called to de-aggregate an A-MSDU and forward the constituent packets up the stack.

We override the WifiMac version here because, as an AP, we also need to think about redistributing to other associated STAs.

Parameters

mpdu	the MPDU containing the A-MSDU.

◆ DoDispose()

void ns3::ApWifiMac::DoDispose ( void )

privatevirtual

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.

◆ DoInitialize()

void ns3::ApWifiMac::DoInitialize ( void )

privatevirtual

Initialize() implementation.

This method is called only once by Initialize(). If the user calls Initialize() multiple times, DoInitialize() is called only the first time.

Subclasses are expected to override this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. It is safe to call GetObject() and AggregateObject() from within this method.

◆ Enqueue() [2/2]

virtual

Parameters

packet	the packet to send.
to	the address to which the packet should be sent.
from	the address from which the packet should be sent.

The packet should be enqueued in a TX queue, and should be dequeued as soon as the DCF function determines that access it granted to this MAC. The extra parameter "from" allows this device to operate in a bridged mode, forwarding received frames without altering the source address.

void ns3::ApWifiMac::Receive ( Ptr< WifiMacQueueItem > mpdu )

This method acts as the MacRxMiddle receive callback and is invoked to notify us that a frame has been received.

The implementation is intended to capture logic that is going to be common to all (or most) derived classes. Specifically, handling of Block Ack management frames is dealt with here.

This method will need, however, to be overridden by derived classes so that they can perform their data handling before invoking the base version.
