Detailed Description

RegisterServer handles communication of notifications to the clients that registered interest in changes affecting specific routes. As these notifications can sometimes be generated faster than the recipient can handle them, the notifications can be queued here.

RegisterServer constructor

Parameters:

xrl_router

the XRL router instance used to send and receive XRLs in this process.

send_route_changed is called to communicate to another XRL module that routing information in which it had registered an interest has changed its nexthop, metric, or admin distance.

Parameters:

modname	the XRL target name of the module to notify.
net	the destination subnet of the route that changed.
nexthop	the new nexthop of the route that changed.
metric	the new routing protocol metric of the route that changed.
admin_distance	the new admin distance of the route that changed.
protocol_origin	the name of the protocol that originated this route.
multicast	true indicates that the change occured in the multicast RIB, false indicates that it occured in the unicast RIB.

send_route_changed is called to communicate to another XRL module that routing information in which it had registered an interest has changed its nexthop, metric, or admin distance.

Parameters:

modname	the XRL target name of the module to notify.
net	the destination subnet of the route that changed.
nexthop	the new nexthop of the route that changed.
metric	the new routing protocol metric of the route that changed.
admin_distance	the new admin distance of the route that changed.
protocol_origin	the name of the protocol that originated this route.
multicast	true indicates that the change occured in the multicast RIB, false indicates that it occured in the unicast RIB.

[virtual]

send_invalidate is called to communicate to another XRL module that routing information in which it had registered an interest has changed in some unspecified way that has caused the registration to become invalid. The client must re-register to find out what really happened.

Parameters:

modname	the XRL target name of the module to notify.
net	the valid_subnet of the route registration that is now invalid.
multicast	true indicates that the change occured in the multicast RIB, false indicates that it occured in the unicast RIB.
