NetworkRouteOsgVisualizer

Package: inet.visualizer.osg.networklayer

simple module NetworkRouteOsgVisualizer

Visualizes network routes on a 3D osg scene. It displays a polyline for each active route in the network. See the documentation of the base module for what constitutes an active route. Each polyline fades out over time until the route becomes inactive unless it is reinforced by another packet. The polyline automatically follows the movement of mobile nodes.

NetworkRouteVisualizer

compound module

Integrates canvas and osg network route visualizers into a single module.

IntegratedMultiOsgVisualizer

compound module

Integrates all osg visualizers into a single module. It supports disabling any submodule visualizer by providing an empty string as its type.

Description

PathVisualizerBase

simple module

Base module for path visualizer simple modules. It keeps track of active routes in a network. A route between two nodes is considered active if a packet is sent recently between their corresponding layers. Active routes are not displayed by default, see the module parameters for how to enable the visualization. The actual visualization of active routes is done in derived modules.

fadeOutMode

string

“realTime”

Specifies how inactive routes fade out

fadeOutTime

double
