Simple Module SEtherApp

Package: pubsub_sim.PSetherApp
File: src/PSetherApp/SEtherApp.ned

The Ethernet Subscriber Application

This subscriber application needed in every subscriber node in a publish subscribe network. It works just over the MAC layer, and this is why it is necessary to implement MAC encapsulation. This module extends the BasePSApp module and adds the necessary functionality. For instance, it is able only to subscribe to new or existing Information Items, kept in the Information item table.
