PacketServerBase¶

simple module PacketServerBase

Base module for various packet server modules.

Inheritance diagram¶

Known subclasses¶

Name	Type	Description
InstantServer	simple module	Repeatedly pulls packets from the connected packet provider and pushes the packet into the connected packet consumer without delay.
PacketServer	simple module	Repeatedly pulls packets from the connected packet provider and after a processing delay, it pushes the packet into the connected packet consumer. The processing delay is `processingTime` + `packetLength` / `processingBitrate`.
PreemptingServer	simple module	(no description)
TokenBasedServer	simple module	Repeatedly pulls packets from the connected packet provider and it pushes them into the connected packet consumer. The packets are processed in zero simulation time, and the process continues until the available number of tokens is not sufficient anymore.

Extends¶

Name	Type	Description
PacketProcessorBase	simple module	Base module for various packet processing modules which maintains a few statistics.

Parameters¶

Name	Type	Default value	Description
displayStringTextFormat	string	“served %p pk (%l)”	Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information

Properties¶

Name	Value	Description
class	PacketServerBase
display	i=block/server

Gates¶

Name	Direction	Size	Description
in	input
out	output

Signals¶

Name	Type	Unit	Description
packetPulled	inet::Packet
packetPushed	inet::Packet

Statistics¶

Name	Title	Source	Record	Unit	Interpolation Mode	Description
incomingDataRate	incoming datarate	throughput(packetPulled)	vector	bps	linear	the statistical value is the data rate of the incoming packets
incomingPacketLengths	incoming packet lengths	packetLength(packetPulled)	sum,histogram,vector	b	none	the statistical value is the length of the incoming packet
incomingPackets	incoming packets	packetPulled	count	pk		the statistical value is the incoming packet
outgoingDataRate	outgoing datarate	throughput(packetPushed)	vector	bps	linear	the statistical value is the data rate of the outgoing packets
outgoingPacketLengths	outgoing packet lengths	packetLength(packetPushed)	sum,histogram,vector	b	none	the statistical value is the length of the outgoing packet
outgoingPackets	outgoing packets	packetPushed	count	pk		the statistical value is the outgoing packet
