layered tree network <NWK_LAYERED>

Initialize it in setup() as follows. Assign a role as Parent Node as NWK_LAYERED::ROLE_PARENT.

#include <NWK_LAYERED>
void setup() {
  ...
  auto&& nwk_ly = the_twelite.network.use<NWK_LAYERED>();
  nwk_ly << NWK_LAYERED::network_role(NWK_LAYERED::ROLE_PARENT);
            // set a role as parent.
}

When a packet is received, on_rx_packet() is called as in NWK_SIMPLE.

void on_rx_packet(packet_rx& rx, bool_t &handled) {
  auto type = rx.get_network_type();
    
  if (type == mwx::NETWORK::LAYERED) {
    ; // Layer tree net packet
    handled = true; // mark as processed
  }
}

rx is a class that wraps packet information. Internally, no processing of packet information etc. is done except for setting internal flags for processing .get_network_type().

In other words, if you refer to rx.get_psRxDataApp() which returns tsRxDataApp*, you will get the same packet information as the TWENET C library. packet_rx defines some procedures to access this information, but the information obtained remains the same.

Use with NWK_SIMPLE

When used with NWK_SIMPLE, assign NWK_LAYERED to the_twelite.network and NWK_SIMPLE to the_twelite.newwork2.

#include <NWK_LAYERED>
#include <NWK_SIMPLE>

void setup() {
    ...
    auto&& nwk_ly = the_twelite.network.use<NWK_LAYERED>();
    auto&& nwk_sm = the_twelite.network2.use<NWK_SIMPLE>();
}

void on_rx_packet(packet_rx& rx, bool_t &handled) {
  auto type = rx.get_network_type();
    
  if (type == mwx::NETWORK::LAYERED) {
      ; // Layer tree net packet
  }
  else if (type == mwx::NETWORK::SIMPLE) {
      ; // Packets of NWK_SIMPLE
  }
  else if (type == mwx::NETWORK::NONE) {
      ; // Normal apps (e.g. App_Twelite)
  }
  else {
      ; // What could not be interpreted
  }
  
  // The packet is processed and no further MWX library intervention is made.
  handled = true;
}

Each packet type is determined by .get_network_type() as shown above.

• mwx::NETWORK::LAYERED : refer to packet information as is.
• mwx::NETWORK::SIMPLE : follow NWK_SIMPLE processing.
• mwx::NETWORK::NONE : No network processing or duplicate packet processing is done. In the App_Twelite standard application, for example, 3 packets are sent out including retransmissions for each transmission. In this case, if all packets are successfully received, on_rx_packt() is called three times. Normally, there is no need for the second and third data just even it has been received three times. We need to ignore these duplicate packets.

Refer to Rcv_Univsl in Act_Samples for an example: TWELITE PAL, Act_samples, and App_Twelite wireless packets with the same CHANNEL and Application ID but different types are received and processed. In addition, a duplicate checker process is also provided for App_Twelite.
