Peripheral and Interface Components
Debug Features
The HostBridge component has no debug features.
Verification and testing
The HostBridge component has been tested as part of a system with network functionalities.
Performance
It is not expected that normal networking usage of the HostBridge component significantly
affects the performance of a PV system. However, heavy usage on the networking of the model,
for example to run networking performance tests, might potentially slow down the simulation.
Library dependencies
The HostBridge component has no dependencies on external libraries.
5.4.45 VirtualEthernetCrossover
The VirtualEthernetCrossover component provides the functionality of an Ethernet crossover
cable. It implements two VirtualEthernet slave ports and enables two VirtualEthernet master
ports to be connected.
Data received on one port is forwarded to the other port without delay.
This component is written in LISA+.
