Active Source - Passive Sink

This step demonstrates the ActivePacketSource and PassivePacketSink modules. The active packet source has a configurable packet production interval; the passive packet sink has a configurable consumption interval, which limits when packets can be pushed into the module.

In this example network, packets are produced periodically by the active packet source (ActivePacketSource) and pushed into the passive packet sink (PassivePacketSink).
