Detailed Description

PPI Modules.

The modules build the PPI core. The PPI provides a set of general purpose infrastructure modules. For concrete applications, additional application specific processing modules need to be implemented.

Implementing Modules

All modules derive from senf::ppi::module::Module. See this class for a documentation on how to write new modules.

General Purpose Modules

The PPI provided general purpose modules can be grouped into several categories

• Source/Sink Modules receive external data or forward packets out of the PPI
• Routing Modules forward packets within the network
• Adapter Modules are used to connect incompatible connectors to each other
