Module netsim::spawn
[−]
[src]
The spawn family of functions allows spawning network-isolated threads and virtual networkds
which you can read+write raw ethernet or IP data to.
new_namespace is the most primitive of these functions. It can be used to spawn a thread into
a container with no network interfaces. with_iface takes network interface parameters as an
argument and will automatically set up an ethernet/IP interface in the container for you. Other
functions are convenience functions will automatically configure interfaces with common
settings.
network_ipv4 can be used to launch a heirarchal network of nodes using the functions in the
node module.
