Detailed Description

generalization of a network interface

A face generalizes a network interface. It provides best-effort network-layer packet delivery services on a physical interface, an overlay tunnel, or a link to a local application.

A face combines two parts: LinkService and Transport. Transport is the lower part, which provides best-effort TLV block deliveries. LinkService is the upper part, which translates between network-layer packets and TLV blocks, and may provide additional services such as fragmentation and reassembly.

◆ setId()

void nfd::face::Face::setId ( FaceId  id)
inline

sets face ID

Note
Normally, this should only be invoked by FaceTable.

Definition at line 239 of file face.hpp.

◆ setMetric()

void nfd::face::Face::setMetric ( uint64_t  metric)
inline

Definition at line 245 of file face.hpp.

◆ getMetric()

uint64_t nfd::face::Face::getMetric ( ) const
inline

Definition at line 251 of file face.hpp.

◆ getLocalUri()

FaceUri nfd::face::Face::getLocalUri ( ) const
inline
Returns
a FaceUri representing local endpoint

Definition at line 257 of file face.hpp.

◆ getRemoteUri()

FaceUri nfd::face::Face::getRemoteUri ( ) const
inline
Returns
a FaceUri representing remote endpoint

Definition at line 263 of file face.hpp.

◆ getScope()

ndn::nfd::FaceScope nfd::face::Face::getScope ( ) const
inline
Returns
whether face is local or non-local for scope control purpose

Definition at line 269 of file face.hpp.

◆ getPersistency()

ndn::nfd::FacePersistency nfd::face::Face::getPersistency ( ) const
inline
Returns
face persistency setting

Definition at line 275 of file face.hpp.

void nfd::face::Face::setPersistency ( ndn::nfd::FacePersistency  persistency)
inline

changes face persistency setting

Definition at line 281 of file face.hpp.

◆ getLinkType()

Definition at line 293 of file face.hpp.

◆ getExpirationTime()

time::steady_clock::TimePoint nfd::face::Face::getExpirationTime ( ) const
inline
Returns
expiration time of the face
Return values
time::steady_clock::TimePoint::max()the face has an indefinite lifetime

Definition at line 299 of file face.hpp.

◆ close()

void nfd::face::Face::close ( )
inline

request the face to be closed

This operation is effective only if face is in UP or DOWN state, otherwise it has no effect. The face changes state to CLOSING, and performs cleanup procedure. The state will be changed to CLOSED when cleanup is complete, which may happen synchronously or asynchronously.

Warning
the face must not be deallocated until its state changes to CLOSED
