def RewardHandler.RewardSendHandler.send_back	(		self,
			dst_ip,
			mac
	)

Generate and send the reward message back to the originating node.

dst_ip	Destination IP of the route for this packet.
mac	MAC address of the node where the packet had been sent for getting the reward.

Returns

None

Here is the caller graph for this function:

def RewardHandler.RewardSendHandler.send_reward	(		self,
			dst_ip,
			mac
	)

Send the reward back to the sender node after some "hold on" time interval.

This timeout is needed to control a number of generated reward messages for some number of the received packets with the same dst_ip.

Parameters

self	The object pointer.
dst_ip	Destination IP of the route for this packet.
mac	MAC address of the node where the packet had been sent for getting the reward.

Returns

None

Member Data Documentation

RewardHandler.RewardSendHandler.hold_on_timeout

A timeout after which the reward value is sent back to the sender.

This is done in order to decrease a number of reward messages being sent back in a case when the incoming packet stream is too intensive.

RewardHandler.RewardSendHandler.node_mac

Reference to the node's own MAC address, stored in Transport.RawTransport.node_mac.

RewardHandler.RewardSendHandler.raw_transport

Reference to Transport.RawTransport object.

RewardHandler.RewardSendHandler.reward_send_list

Define a structure for handling reward sends for given dst_ips.

Format: {hash(dst_ip + mac): last_sent_ts}. Hash is 32-bit integer, generated from md5 hash.

RewardHandler.RewardSendHandler.table

Reference to RouteTable.Table object.
