I built a network in INET 4.5 with TSN switches and end systems. I got all switches and end systems from INET's TSN showcase. In my topology there are multiple paths between a source and destination and not all of them are shortest paths. Except for the FRER example, in other TSN showcases there is only one path from a source to a destination. Although I don't know, either a spanning tree or a mechanism like OSPF is used to find a route and forward the packet that way. In my network, when I do not define any forwarding table, it forwards packets from the shortest path, but I want to define my own path. For this, looking at the FRER example:
*.macForwardingTableConfigurator.typename = ""
and
Based on the definitions I wrote in the second part, I applied the forwarding table to my topology. However this time in the first switch of the path, it sends it to all its neighbors as if it is being broadcast. I also checked Scenario manager and I don't see such a feature in it. I can't think of anything other than destination based forwarding (the approach in FRER example) and but I didn't succeed in that either. I am new to INET. How can I do it?
