knet_host_set_policy3
Set the switching policy for a host's links.
Usage
#include <libknet.h>
int knet_host_set_policy(
knet_handle_t knet_h,
knet_node_id_t host_id,
uint8_t policy
);
Overview
knet_host_set_policy
knet_h - pointer to knet_handle_t
host_id - see knet_host_add(3)
policy - there are currently 3 kind of simple switching policies based on link configuration. KNET_LINK_POLICY_PASSIVE - the active link with the highest priority (highest number) will be used. if one or more active links share the same priority, the one with lowest link_id will be used.
KNET_LINK_POLICY_ACTIVE - all active links will be used simultaneously to send traffic. link priority is ignored.
KNET_LINK_POLICY_RR - round-robin policy, every packet will be send on a different active link.
Return value
knet_host_set_policy returns 0 on success -1 on error and errno is set.
