Package: inet.linklayer.configurator

L2NetworkConfigurator

simple module

This module allows to configure network scenarios at layer 2. The Stp and Rstp related parameters such as link cost, port priority and the "is-edge" flag can be configured with XML files.

This module is based on Ipv4NetworkConfigurator. The optional selector attributes: @hosts, @names, @towards, @among are also comes with this configurator and each of them behaves similarly to its Ipv4NetworkConfigurator equivalent. @ports selector added to configuring per-port parameters in Ieee8021dInterfaceData.

The following example configures port 5 (if it exists) on all switches to cost 19 and priority 32768:

<config>
  <interface hosts='**' ports='5' cost='19' priority='32768'/>
</config>

For more information about the usage of the selector attributes see Ipv4NetworkConfigurator.
