Example

The configuration example examples/ingress contains the following setup:

dev a_eth0 10 Mbps

host {
    dev b_eth0 10 Mbps
    dev b_eth1 10 Mbps
    route 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 b_eth1
}

connect a_eth0 b_eth0

send a_eth0 PACKET

Since tcsim does not name hosts, we include the host name in interface names for clarity. The interface a_eth0 does not require a host section, because packets are enqueued directly at that interface, so no other ``local'' interface needs to be associated with it.

Figure 6.2 illustrates the configuration generated by the above example.
