Inheritance diagram

The following diagram shows inheritance relationships for this type. Unresolved types are missing from the diagram.

Implemented by

Name	Type	Description
AdhocHost	compound module	A wireless host containing routing, mobility and energy components. Supports IPv4 network protocol, TCP, UDP, and SCTP as transport protocol. This is a typical mobile node which can participate in adhoc routing and may have TCP/UDP applications installed. Supports ICMP (ping) too.
AodvRouter	compound module	It models a WirelessHost extended with Aodv submodule.
ApplicationLayerNodeBase	compound module	(no description)
BgpRouter	compound module	IP router with BGPv4 and OSPFv4 support.
CorrespondentNode6	compound module	An IPv6 host with MIPv6 support and contains a Binding Cache which gets updated with every BU received.
DsdvRouter	compound module	A DSDV router.
DymoRouter	compound module	(no description)
EigrpRouter	compound module	(no description)
EthernetSwitch	compound module	Model of an Ethernet switch.
GpsrRouter	compound module	(no description)
GptpBridge	compound module	This module implements a gPTP bridge network node.
GptpEndstation	compound module	This module implements a gPTP end station that contains a clock module and a gPTP protocol.
GptpMaster	compound module	This module provide a gPTP master network node.
GptpSlave	compound module	This module provide a gPTP slave network node.
HomeAgent6	compound module	IPv6 router configured to operate as a Home Agent in a network supporting MIPv6.
InternetCloud	compound module	This module is an IPv4 router that can delay or drop packets (while retaining their order) based on which interface card the packet arrived on and on which interface it is leaving the cloud. The delayer module is replaceable.
LinkLayerNodeBase	compound module	(no description)
ManetRouter	compound module	(no description)
MobileHost6	compound module	MIPv6 host with TCP, UDP layers and applications.
MulticastRouter	compound module	(no description)
NetworkLayerNodeBase	compound module	(no description)
NodeBase	compound module	This module contains the most basic infrastructure for network nodes that is not strictly communication protocol related.
OspfRouter	compound module	An OSPFv2 router.
Ospfv3Router	compound module	An OSPFv3 router.
Probe	compound module	(no description)
RipRouter	compound module	An RIPv2 router.
Router	compound module	IPv4 router that supports wireless, Ethernet, PPP and external interfaces. By default, no wireless and external interfaces are added; the number of Ethernet and PPP ports depends on the external connections.
Router6	compound module	IPv6 router.
RtpHost	compound module	(no description)
SctpNatRouter	compound module	SCTP NAT router
SensorNode	compound module	This module implements a wireless sensor node. It has one 802.15.4 wireless interface and an energy storage module by default.
StandardHost	compound module	IPv4 host with SCTP, TCP, UDP layers and applications. IP forwarding is disabled by default (see forwarding).
StandardHost6	compound module	IPv6 host with TCP, SCTP and UDP layers and applications. see StandardHost for configuration.
TransportLayerNodeBase	compound module	(no description)
TsnClock	compound module	This module represents a hardware device containing a high precision hardware clock. The device also contains a gPTP protocol implementation and acts as a gPTP master node in the network.
TsnDevice	compound module	This module represents a Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) hardware end device that supports time synchronization, per-stream filtering and policing, scheduling and traffic shaping, frame replication and elimination, frame preemption for Ethernet networks. All TSN features are optional and they can be combined with other Ethernet features.
TsnSwitch	compound module	This module represents a Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) switch that supports time synchronization, per-stream filtering and policing, scheduling and traffic shaping, frame replication and elimination, frame preemption and cut-through switching for Ethernet networks. All TSN features are optional and they can be combined with other Ethernet features.
WirelessHost	compound module	Models a host with (default) one wireless (802.11) card in infrastructure mode. This module is basically a StandardHost with an Ieee80211Interface with mgmt.typename = Ieee80211MgmtSta added. It should be used in conjunction with AccessPoint, or any other AP model which contains Ieee80211Interface with mgmt.typename = Ieee80211MgmtAp.
WirelessHost6	compound module	IPv6 compatible node with MIPv6 support. Models a host with one wireless (802.11b) card in infrastructure mode, supports handovers and MIPv6 protocol.
