This document describes the +model starting from the lowest layer. The description uses IPv4 addresses and +protocols, but all concepts apply equally to the IPv6 equivalents. The diagrams +all portray the CLI command to install the information in VPP and an +[approximation of] a UML diagram [#f1]_ of the data structures used to represent that +information. + +.. toctree:: + + arpentries + routes + attachedexport + graphwalks + +.. rubric:: Footnotes: + +.. [#f1] The arrow indicates a ‘has-a’ relationship. The object attached to the arrow head ‘has-a’ instance of the other. The numbers next to the arrows indicate the multiplicity, i.e. object A has n to m instances of object B. The difference between a UML association and aggregation is not conveyed in any diagrams. To UML aficionados, I apologize. Word is not the best drawing tool. |
