Detailed Description

Header for the Transmission Control Protocol.

This class has fields corresponding to those in a network TCP header (port numbers, sequence and acknowledgement numbers, flags, etc) as well as methods for serialization to and deserialization from a byte buffer.


Member Function Documentation

virtual uint32_t ns3::TcpHeader::Deserialize ( Buffer::Iterator  start  )  [virtual]

Parameters:
start an iterator which points to where the header should written.
Returns:
the number of bytes read.
This method is used by Packet::RemoveHeader to re-create a header from the byte buffer of a packet. The data read is expected to match bit-for-bit the representation of this header in real networks.

Implements ns3::Header.

SequenceNumber ns3::TcpHeader::GetAckNumber (  )  const

Returns:
the ACK number for this TcpHeader

uint16_t ns3::TcpHeader::GetDestinationPort (  )  const

Returns:
the destination port for this TcpHeader

uint8_t ns3::TcpHeader::GetFlags (  )  const

Returns:
the flags for this TcpHeader

virtual TypeId ns3::TcpHeader::GetInstanceTypeId ( void   )  const [virtual]

Returns:
the TypeId associated to the most-derived type of this instance.
This method is typically implemented by ns3::Object::GetInstanceTypeId but some classes which derive from ns3::ObjectBase directly have to implement it themselves.

Implements ns3::ObjectBase.

uint8_t ns3::TcpHeader::GetLength (  )  const

Returns:
the length of this TcpHeader

SequenceNumber ns3::TcpHeader::GetSequenceNumber (  )  const

Returns:
the sequence number for this TcpHeader

virtual uint32_t ns3::TcpHeader::GetSerializedSize ( void   )  const [virtual]

Returns:
the expected size of the header.
This method is used by Packet::AddHeader to store a header into the byte buffer of a packet. This method should return the number of bytes which are needed to store the full header data by Serialize.

Implements ns3::Header.

uint16_t ns3::TcpHeader::GetSourcePort (  )  const

Returns:
The source port for this TcpHeader

static TypeId ns3::TcpHeader::GetTypeId ( void   )  [static]

This method returns the TypeId associated to ns3::TcpHeader.

No Attributes defined for this type.
No TraceSources defined for this type.

Reimplemented from ns3::Header.

uint16_t ns3::TcpHeader::GetUrgentPointer (  )  const

Returns:
the urgent pointer for this TcpHeader

uint16_t ns3::TcpHeader::GetWindowSize (  )  const

Returns:
the window size for this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::InitializeChecksum ( Ipv4Address  source,
Ipv4Address  destination,
uint8_t  protocol 
)

Parameters:
source the ip source to use in the underlying ip packet.
destination the ip destination to use in the underlying ip packet.
protocol the protocol number to use in the underlying ip packet.
If you want to use tcp checksums, you should call this method prior to adding the header to a packet.

bool ns3::TcpHeader::IsChecksumOk ( void   )  const

Is the TCP checksum correct ?

Returns:
true if the checksum is correct, false otherwise.

virtual void ns3::TcpHeader::Print ( std::ostream &  os  )  const [virtual]

This method is used by Packet::Print to print the content of a trailer as ascii data to a c++ output stream. Although the trailer is free to format its output as it wishes, it is recommended to follow a few rules to integrate with the packet pretty printer: start with flags, small field values located between a pair of parens. Values should be separated by whitespace. Follow the parens with the important fields, separated by whitespace. i.e.: (field1 val1 field2 val2 field3 val3) field4 val4 field5 val5

Implements ns3::Header.

virtual void ns3::TcpHeader::Serialize ( Buffer::Iterator  start  )  const [virtual]

Parameters:
start an iterator which points to where the header should be written.
This method is used by Packet::AddHeader to store a header into the byte buffer of a packet. The data written is expected to match bit-for-bit the representation of this header in a real network.

Implements ns3::Header.

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetAckNumber ( SequenceNumber  ackNumber  ) 

Parameters:
ackNumber the ACK number for this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetDestinationPort ( uint16_t  port  ) 

Parameters:
port the destination port for this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetFlags ( uint8_t  flags  ) 

Parameters:
flags the flags for this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetLength ( uint8_t  length  ) 

Parameters:
length the length of this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetSequenceNumber ( SequenceNumber  sequenceNumber  ) 

Parameters:
sequenceNumber the sequence number for this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetSourcePort ( uint16_t  port  ) 

Parameters:
port The source port for this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetUrgentPointer ( uint16_t  urgentPointer  ) 

Parameters:
urgentPointer the urgent pointer for this TcpHeader

void ns3::TcpHeader::SetWindowSize ( uint16_t  windowSize  ) 

Parameters:
windowSize the window size for this TcpHeader
