Implemented by

Name Type Description
ExtLowerIpv4NetworkLayer compound module

Provides a simplified network layer for emulation that connects the simulation to a real network on the host computer. Uses ~ExtLowerIpv4 to send packets from the simulation to the real network and receive packets from the real network into the simulation using raw sockets.

ExtUpperIpv4NetworkLayer compound module

Provides a network layer that connects the simulation to a real network on the host computer using a TUN device. Allows simulated applications to send and receive packets through the host's networking stack at the IP layer. Contains standard components like routing table and ARP, and uses ~ExtUpperIpv4 with a TUN device for external connectivity.

Ipv4NetworkLayer compound module

Network(1,2,3,4) layer of an IPv4 node.

Ipv6NetworkLayer compound module

Represents an IPv6 network layer (L3).

NextHopNetworkLayer compound module

Provides a network layer for the next hop forwarding.

SimpleNetworkLayer compound module

Provides a simple network layer.

WiseRouteNetworkLayer compound module

Provides a simple network layer.

Used in compound modules

Name Type Description
NetworkLayerNodeBase compound module

An extension of the link layer node base with network layer functionality. Provides support for multiple network protocols, including IPv4 and IPv6.
