DirectionReverserLayer

compound module

Provides a layer that combines the decision for local delivery with the service of reversing the direction of an incoming packet to outgoing for packet forwarding.

Unassigned submodule parameters

Name	Type	Default value	Description
fork.displayStringTextFormat	string	"processed %p pk (%l)"	Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information
fork.interfaceTableModule	string		Module path to the ~InterfaceTable module
fork.forwardProtocolRegistration	bool	true
fork.interfaceMapping	object	{}	Maps network interface names to connected submodule names (e.g. {"eth0": "bridging"}), overrides automatically learned dispatching; * overrides all learned network interfaces, ? overrides default
fork.serviceMapping	object	{}	Maps protocols to connected submodule names (e.g. {"ethernetmac": "bridging"}), overrides automatically learned dispatching; * overrides all learned services, ? overrides default
fork.protocolMapping	object	{}	Maps protocols to connected submodule names (e.g. {"ipv4": "bridging"}), overrides automatically learned dispatching; * overrides all learned protocols, ? overrides default
join.displayStringTextFormat	string	"passed %p pk (%l)"	Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information
join.forwardServiceRegistration	bool	true
