Re: Questions about LAN



When using make-lan, the value of bw you are passing as a parameter will be the 
value of the LAN's bw, no matter what mac you are using.

ifq_ is stored in class LanIface in turn stored in lanIface_; so you can do 
something like:
set nif [$lan set lanIface_($node)]
set ifq [$nif set ifq_]

if you want to use 802.3 with bw values other than 10Mbps you should check with 
the corresponding values of IEEE for backoffLimit, attemplimit, jamSize, 
slotTime and interFrameGap. They will change for 100Mbps and 1000Mbps.
