// This script exercises global routing code in a mixed point-to-point
// and csma/cd environment.  We bring up and down interfaces and observe
// the effect on global routing.  We explicitly enable the attribute
// to respond to interface events, so that routes are recomputed
// automatically.

// - at time 1 CBR/UDP flow from n1 to n6's IP address on the n5/n6 link
// - at time 10, start similar flow from n1 to n6's address on the n1/n6 link
//
//  Order of events
//  At pre-simulation time, configure global routes.  Shortest path from
//  n1 to n6 is via the direct point-to-point link
//  At time 1s, start CBR traffic flow from n1 to n6
//  At time 2s, set the n1 point-to-point interface to down.  Packets
//    will be diverted to the n1-n2-n5-n6 path
//  At time 4s, re-enable the n1/n6 interface to up.  n1-n6 route restored.
//  At time 6s, set the n6-n1 point-to-point Ipv4 interface to down (note, this
//    keeps the point-to-point link "up" from n1's perspective).  Traffic will
//    flow through the path n1-n2-n5-n6
//  At time 8s, bring the interface back up.  Path n1-n6 is restored
//  At time 10s, stop the first flow.
//  At time 11s, start a new flow, but to n6's other IP address (the one
//    on the n1/n6 p2p link)
//  At time 12s, bring the n1 interface down between n1 and n6.  Packets
//    will be diverted to the alternate path
//  At time 14s, re-enable the n1/n6 interface to up.  This will change
//    routing back to n1-n6 since the interface up notification will cause
//    a new local interface route, at higher priority than global routing
//  At time 16s, stop the second flow.
