Advanced Routing Module
The Advanced Routing module is designed to calculate a set number of routing alternatives for one or multiple pairs of satellite network nodes. The user can specify one or several "source node - destination node" pairs, the number of alternative routes to be calculated for each pair, and provide the list of inactive network nodes.
Based on the connectivity data (i.e., list of active edges with "weights") produced by the SC Modeler at each time step during simulation, and in accordance with the chosen routing criteria, the Advanced Routing module immediately calculates the specified number of routes for each pair of network nodes and posts the generated routing table to a given Web address.
The user can modify the list of nodes to be avoided and other relevant information at any time. As soon as the new input information becomes available, the module starts a new cycle of generating the routing table.
