Name Type Description
EthernetSignal packet

Abstract base class for various Ethernet traffic types: EtherJam, EtherFilledIfg and EtherPhyFrame.

EthernetJamSignal packet

Represents jam on the Ethernet.

EthernetFilledIfgSignal packet

Represents a filled inter-frame gap in burst mode. Also used for calculating IFG times.

EthernetPhyHeader class

Represents an Ethernet PHY frame.
