Used in compound modules¶

Name	Type	Description
AggregatorBase	compound module	Base module for packet aggregation. Collects multiple packets and combines them into a single aggregated packet based on a configurable aggregation policy. Aggregation improves network efficiency by reducing header overhead when transmitting multiple small packets. The module delegates the aggregation decision to a policy class or module that determines if a packet can be aggregated with the current set.

Extends¶

Name	Type	Description
SimpleModule	simple module	Base module for all INET simple modules.

displayStringTextFormat	string	“”	Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information
minNumSubpackets	int	0
maxNumSubpackets	int
minAggregatedLength	int	0b
maxAggregatedLength	int
