connect-real-network-host

Synopsis

connect-real-network-host ["interface"] [-poll]
<ethernet_cable>.connect-real-network-host ["interface"] [-poll]
<ethernet_hub>.connect-real-network-host ["interface"] [-poll]
<ethernet_switch>.connect-real-network-host ["interface"] [-poll]

Description

Connects a TAP interface of the simulation host to a simulated Ethernet link.

The optional interface argument specifies the TAP interface of the host to use.

Use -poll to enable poll mode, where the packets are received in full before handed off to worker threads. This will block all other real time events while receiving the data, which may impact overall performance. Use at your own discretion.

This command returns the new real-network component object.
