It also indicates the forwarding strategy. * * Each nexthop contains the ConnectionId assocaited with it. This could be * something specific like a MAC address or point-to-point tunnel. Or, it * could be something general like a MAC group address or ip multicast overlay. * * See metis/strategies/metis_Strategy.h for a description of forwarding strategies. * In short, a strategy is the algorithm used to select one or more nexthops from * the set of available nexthops. * * Each nexthop also contains a void* to a forwarding strategy data container. * This allows a strategy to keep proprietary information about each nexthop. * * */ #ifndef Metis_metis_FibEntry_h #define Metis_metis_FibEntry_h #include #include struct metis_fib_entry; typedef struct metis_fib_entry MetisFibEntry; MetisFibEntry *metisFibEntry_Create(MetisTlvName *name, const char *fwdStrategy); /** * Decrements the reference count by one, and destroys the memory after last release * * <#Paragraphs Of Explanation#> * * @param [in,out] fibEntryPtr A pointer to a MetisFibEntry, will be NULL'd * * Example: * @code * { * MetisFibEntry *fibEntry = metisFibEntry(name); * metisFibEntry_Release(&fibEntry); * } * @endcode */ void metisFibEntry_Release(MetisFibEntry **fibEntryPtr); /** * Returns a reference counted copy of the fib entry * * The reference count is increased by one.
