Detailed Description

A network Node.

This class holds together:

a list of NetDevice objects which represent the network interfaces of this node which are connected to other Node instances through Channel instances.
a list of Application objects which represent the userspace traffic generation applications which interact with the Node through the Socket API.
a node Id: a unique per-node identifier.
a system Id: a unique Id used for parallel simulations.

Every Node created is added to the NodeList automatically.

Config Paths

ns3::Node is accessible through the following paths with Config::Set and Config::Connect:

/NodeList/[i]

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef Callback<void,Ptr<NetDevice> > ns3::Node::DeviceAdditionListener

A callback invoked whenever a device is added to a node.

Definition at line 174 of file node.h.

typedef Callback<void,Ptr<NetDevice>, Ptr<const Packet>,uint16_t,const Address &, const Address &, NetDevice::PacketType> ns3::Node::ProtocolHandler

A protocol handler

Parameters

device	a pointer to the net device which received the packet
packet	the packet received
protocol	the 16 bit protocol number associated with this packet. This protocol number is expected to be the same protocol number given to the Send method by the user on the sender side.
sender	the address of the sender
receiver	the address of the receiver; Note: this value is only valid for promiscuous mode protocol handlers. Note: If the L2 protocol does not use L2 addresses, the address reported here is the value of device->GetAddress().
packetType	type of packet received (broadcast/multicast/unicast/otherhost); Note: this value is only valid for promiscuous mode protocol handlers.

void ns3::Node::DoDispose ( void )

protectedvirtual

The dispose method. Subclasses must override this method and must chain up to it by calling Node::DoDispose at the end of their own DoDispose method.

Reimplemented from ns3::Object.

Definition at line 174 of file node.cc.

References ns3::Object::DoDispose(), and NS_LOG_FUNCTION.

void ns3::Node::DoInitialize ( void )

protectedvirtual

This method is called only once by Object::Initialize. If the user calls Object::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.
