UMLSwitch

Connects to a UML switch daemon

SYNOPSIS§

UMLSwitch([FILENAME])

Ports: at most 1 input, at most 1 output
Processing: pull inputs, push outputs
Drivers: userlevel

DESCRIPTION§

Transports packets to and from a User Mode Linux switch daemon instance. Packets do not flow through UMLSwitch elements (i.e., UMLSwitch is an "x/y" element). Instead, input packets are sent to the UML switch, and packets received from the UML switch are emitted on the output.

If FILENAME is not specified, "/tmp/uml.ctl" will be used as the path to the UML control socket.
