//
// Stores the routing table. (Per-interface configuration is stored in
// ~InterfaceTable.)
//
// For hosts, the `routerId` module parameter should be empty (""),
// in which case the loopback IPv4 address will be set to 127.0.0.1/8.
// For routers which have a `routerId` set, the loopback address will be set to
// `routerId`. (See also RFC 2072 "Router Renumbering Guide".)
//
// `RouterId` may also be set to the string `"auto"`, in which case the
// highest interface address will be chosen as `routerId`; the loopback address
// will remain 127.0.0.1/8.
//
// The routing table is read from a file (parameter `routingFile`);
// the file can also fill in or overwrite interface settings.
// The file format is documented <a href="irt.html">here</a>.
//
// Note that many protocols don't require `routerId` to be routable, but some
// others do -- so it is probably a good idea to set up routable `routerIds`.
//
// This module has no gates; all functionality can be accessed via member
// functions of the C++ module class. For detailed info, please see the C++
// documentation of the class (Doxygen).
//
