Enum LinkType 

pub enum LinkType {
    PointToPoint,
    MultiAccess,
    AdHoc,
}

Link type for a face — indicates the connectivity model of the underlying link.

Forwarding strategies use this to decide whether to suppress duplicate Interests on the same face (multi-access suppression) and to select appropriate forwarding algorithms for partially-connected topologies.

Matches the NFD link-type model:

• PointToPoint: single-peer link (unicast TCP, UDP, serial, Unix socket).
• MultiAccess: all nodes on the link receive every frame (Ethernet multicast, UDP multicast on a wired LAN or Wi-Fi infrastructure AP).
• AdHoc: partially-connected wireless (Wi-Fi IBSS, MANET) — not all nodes hear every frame, so multi-access suppression should be disabled.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for LinkType

fn clone(&self) -> LinkType

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for LinkType

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for LinkType

fn default() -> LinkType

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for LinkType

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Display for LinkType

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for LinkType

fn eq(&self, other: &LinkType) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for LinkType

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Copy for LinkType

impl Eq for LinkType

impl StructuralPartialEq for LinkType
