Method Detail

addLink

void addLink(Link link)

Sets this entity's link. This should be used only if the network extensions are being used.

Parameters:

link - the link to which this entity should send/receive data

getBaudRate

double getBaudRate()

Gets the baud rate

Returns:

the baud rate

setBackgroundTraffic

boolean setBackgroundTraffic(TrafficGenerator gen)

Sets the background traffic generator for Output entity only.

When simulation starts, this entity will automatically sends junk packets to resource entities.

Parameters:

gen - a background traffic generator

Returns:

true if successful, false otherwise

setBackgroundTraffic

boolean setBackgroundTraffic(TrafficGenerator gen,
                             Collection userName)

Sets the background traffic generator for Output entity only.

When simulation starts, this entity will automatically sends junk packets to resource entities and other entities.
NOTE: Sending background traffic to itself is not supported.

Parameters:

gen - a background traffic generator

userName - a collection of user entity name (in String object).

Returns:

true if successful, false otherwise

Pre Condition:

gen != null, userName != null

Post Condition:

$none
