IPacketPusher

module interface

Interface for packet pushers. A packet pusher connects one input to one output. Packets can be pushed into its input and it pushes packets into its output.

Inheritance diagram

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

Implemented by

Name	Type	Description
StreamSplitter	simple module	Duplicates incoming packets based on the stream they are part of. The stream is determined by the `StreamReq` tag that is attached to the packet. The number of outgoing packets is determined by the mapping parameter. Each outgoing packet will have an attached `StreamReq` with the tag name taken from the mapping parameter.

Used in compound modules

Name	Type	Description
StreamRelayLayer	compound module	Combines a stream merger and a stream splitter module into a stream relay layer. For incoming packets, the identified streams are merged by the stream merger. For outgoing packets, the requested streams are split by the stream splitter.

Extends

Name	Type	Description
IPassivePacketSink	module interface	Interface for passive packet sink modules. A passive packet sink, also called a consumer, has one input that must be connected to an active packet source module. The connected active packet source is expected to push packets into the passive packet sink over time.
IActivePacketSource	module interface	Interface for active packet source modules. An active packet source, also called a producer, has one output that must be connected to a passive packet sink module. The active packet source is expected to push packets into the connected passive packet sink over time.
