Install() [1/2]

NetDeviceContainer ns3::BridgeHelper::Install	(	Ptr< Node >	node,
		NetDeviceContainer	c
	)

This method creates an ns3::BridgeNetDevice with the attributes configured by BridgeHelper::SetDeviceAttribute, adds the device to the node, and attaches the given NetDevices as ports of the bridge.

Parameters

node	The node to install the device in
c	Container of NetDevices to add as bridge ports

Returns

A container holding the added net device.

NetDeviceContainer ns3::BridgeHelper::Install	(	std::string	nodeName,
		NetDeviceContainer	c
	)

This method creates an ns3::BridgeNetDevice with the attributes configured by BridgeHelper::SetDeviceAttribute, adds the device to the node, and attaches the given NetDevices as ports of the bridge.

Parameters

nodeName	The name of the node to install the device in
c	Container of NetDevices to add as bridge ports

Returns

A container holding the added net device.
