Description Tom Henderson 2008-12-03 01:32:17 UTC

This is a bug entry to track the issue raised in this ns-3-users thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/ns-3-users/browse_thread/thread/da6368f469f154a3

Comment 1 Tom Henderson 2008-12-03 01:46:46 UTC

The attached test programs test the following 3-node topology:
// (a.a.a.a/32)A<--x.x.x.0/30-->B<--y.y.y.0/30-->C(c.c.c.c/32)

There are two test programs:
- static-routing-slash32.cc
- global-routing-slash32.cc

The second program requires a small patch in global routing code, to allow for a stub device with Ipv4Interface but with no channel:

   uint32_t nDevices = ch->GetNDevices();

otherwise, both programs run against the current ns-3-dev repository.

Comment 4 Tom Henderson 2009-06-30 00:56:04 UTC

This hasn't been updated for half a year and the attachments have been committed in the previous release cycle.  I think that the reported issues in the ns-3-users thread are now fixed, so I'm marking FIXED.
