◆ AssignIpv4Addresses()

void ns3::PointToPointGridHelper::AssignIpv4Addresses ( Ipv4AddressHelper  rowIp,
Ipv4AddressHelper  colIp 
)

Assigns Ipv4 addresses to all the row and column interfaces.

Parameters
rowIpthe Ipv4AddressHelper used to assign Ipv4 addresses to all of the row interfaces in the grid
colIpthe Ipv4AddressHelper used to assign Ipv4 addresses to all of the column interfaces in the grid

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ AssignIpv6Addresses()

void ns3::PointToPointGridHelper::AssignIpv6Addresses ( Ipv6Address  network,
Ipv6Prefix  prefix 
)

Assigns Ipv6 addresses to all the row and column interfaces.

Parameters
networkan IPv6 address representing the network portion of the IPv6 Address
prefixthe prefix length

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ BoundingBox()

void ns3::PointToPointGridHelper::BoundingBox ( double  ulx,
double  uly,
double  lrx,
double  lry 
)

Sets up the node canvas locations for every node in the grid.

This is needed for use with the animation interface

Parameters
ulxupper left x value
ulyupper left y value
lrxlower right x value
lrylower right y value

+ Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ GetIpv4Address()

Ipv4Address ns3::PointToPointGridHelper::GetIpv4Address ( uint32_t  row,
uint32_t  col 
)

This returns an Ipv4 address at the node specified by the (row, col) address.

Technically, a node will have multiple interfaces in the grid; therefore, it also has multiple Ipv4 addresses. This method only returns one of the addresses. If you picture the grid, the address returned is the left row device of all the nodes, except the left-most grid nodes, which returns the right row device.

Parameters
rowthe row address of the node desired
colthe column address of the node desired
Returns
Ipv4Address of one of the interfaces of the node specified by the (row, col) address

◆ GetIpv6Address()

Ipv6Address ns3::PointToPointGridHelper::GetIpv6Address ( uint32_t  row,
uint32_t  col 
)

This returns an Ipv6 address at the node specified by the (row, col) address.

Technically, a node will have multiple interfaces in the grid; therefore, it also has multiple Ipv6 addresses. This method only returns one of the addresses. If you picture the grid, the address returned is the left row device of all the nodes, except the left-most grid nodes, which returns the right row device.

Parameters
rowthe row address of the node desired
colthe column address of the node desired
Returns
Ipv6Address of one of the interfaces of the node specified by the (row, col) address

◆ GetNode()

Ptr< Node > ns3::PointToPointGridHelper::GetNode ( uint32_t  row,
uint32_t  col 
)
Parameters
rowthe row address of the node desired
colthe column address of the node desired
Returns
a pointer to the node specified by the (row, col) address
