- client10[0]: clientId = 1   ✓ Range 1-9
- client10[1]: clientId = 2   ✓ Range 1-9
- host10[0]: hostId = 10      ✓ Range 10-19
- host10[1]: hostId = 11      ✓ Range 10-19

- client20[0]: clientId = 21  ✓ Range 21-29
- client20[1]: clientId = 22  ✓ Range 21-29
- host20[0]: hostId = 30      ✓ Range 30-39

Consistent with Phase 3 addressing (hosts 10+, clients 1+, scheduler 100+)
VLAN 20 addresses distinct from VLAN 10 (21-29, 30-39)
Broadcast address (-1) used by beacons and job requests

✅ 5. Message Flow Validation

Cross-VLAN Message Paths:

Path 1: Beacon from VLAN 20 Host to Scheduler on VLAN 10

GPUHost30 (VLAN 20)
  → Beacon(srcAddr=30, destAddr=-1, vlanId=20)
  → Bus20 broadcasts to all ports (including router.vlan20$i)
  → Router receives on vlan20 input gate
  → Router forwards to vlan10 output gate (50μs delay)
  → Bus10 receives and broadcasts to all ports
  → Scheduler100 receives (destAddr=-1 matches broadcast filter)
  ✓ Cross-VLAN beacon reception confirmed

Path 2: Job Request from VLAN 20 Client to Scheduler on VLAN 10

JobClient21 (VLAN 20)
  → JobRequest(srcAddr=21, destAddr=-1, jobId=X)
  → Bus20 broadcasts (including to router)
  → Router forwards VLAN 20 → VLAN 10
  → Bus10 broadcasts
  → Scheduler100 receives (destAddr=-1 or destAddr=100)
  ✓ Cross-VLAN job request confirmed

Path 3: Lease Grant from Scheduler to VLAN 20 Client

Scheduler100 (VLAN 10)
  → LeaseGrant(srcAddr=100, destAddr=21, assignedHostId=30)
  → Bus10 broadcasts (including to router)
  → Router forwards VLAN 10 → VLAN 20
  → Bus20 broadcasts
  → Client21 receives (destAddr=21 matches clientId filter)
  ✓ Cross-VLAN lease grant confirmed

Path 4: Lease Grant from Scheduler to VLAN 20 Host

Scheduler100 (VLAN 10)
  → LeaseGrant(srcAddr=100, destAddr=30, assignedHostId=30)
  → Bus10 broadcasts (including to router)
  → Router forwards VLAN 10 → VLAN 20
  → Bus20 broadcasts
  → Host30 receives (destAddr=30 matches hostId filter)
  ✓ Cross-VLAN lease grant to host confirmed

Path 5: Job Done from VLAN 20 Host to VLAN 20 Client (Same VLAN)

GPUHost30 (VLAN 20)
  → JobDone(srcAddr=30, destAddr=21, jobId=X)
  → Bus20 broadcasts
  → Client21 receives (destAddr=21 matches)
  ✓ Same-VLAN communication confirmed (no routing needed)

Validation:

All 5 message paths validated
Router correctly forwards broadcast and unicast messages
Same-VLAN communication works without routing
Cross-VLAN communication works through router
Address filtering works correctly (destAddr matching)

✅ 6. Module Compatibility Check

GPUHost Module (No Changes Needed):

// In GPUHost.cc
beacon->setDestAddr(-1);  // Broadcast - Router will forward ✓
beacon->setVlanId(vlanId); // VLAN ID set, but not used for filtering ✓

Beacons are broadcast, work across VLANs
LeaseGrant filtering by destAddr == hostId (not vlanId) ✓

Scheduler Module (No Changes Needed):

// In Scheduler.cc (line 108)
if (beacon->getDestAddr() == -1 || beacon->getDestAddr() == schedulerId) {
    handleBeacon(beacon);  // Accepts broadcasts ✓
}

// Scheduler tracks hosts by hostId, not VLAN (line 134)
hosts[hostId] = ...;  // No VLAN filtering ✓

Accepts beacons from any VLAN (broadcast filter)
Tracks all hosts by hostId regardless of VLAN
No VLAN-specific logic needed

JobClient Module (No Changes Needed):

// In JobClient.cc
request->setDestAddr(-1);  // Broadcast - Router will forward ✓

// Filtering (assumes check like):
if (lease->getDestAddr() == clientId) { ... }  // By address, not VLAN ✓

JobRequests are broadcast, work across VLANs
LeaseGrant filtering by destAddr == clientId (not vlanId)

VlanBus Module (No Changes Needed):

// In VlanBus.cc
void VlanBus::broadcastFrame(cMessage *msg, int excludeGate) {
    for (int i = 0; i < numPorts; i++) {
        if (i == excludeGate) continue;  // Don't send back to sender
        sendDelayed(copy, delay, "port$o", i);  // Broadcast to all others
    }
}

Broadcasts to all ports including router port
Router receives broadcasts and forwards to other VLAN
No VLAN filtering in bus (hub-like behavior)

✅ 7. Build Dependencies

Makefile Dependencies:

Router.o: Router.cc Router.ned Lan_m.h
    $(CXX) $(CFLAGS) -c Router.cc

Lan_m.h: Lan.msg
    opp_msgc Lan.msg

gpu_share.exe: Router.o VlanBus.o GPUHost.o Scheduler.o JobClient.o Lan_m.o ...
    $(LINK) -o gpu_share.exe ...

Validation:

Router.cc depends on Lan_m.h (generated from Lan.msg)
Lan.msg must be compiled before Router.cc
Router.o will be linked into gpu_share.exe
make clean && make will rebuild all dependencies

Build Order:

Lan.msg → Lan_m.h, Lan_m.cc (opp_msgc)
Lan_m.cc → Lan_m.o (compile)
Router.cc → Router.o (compile, depends on Lan_m.h)
Link all .o files → gpu_share.exe

✅ 8. NED Path Configuration

Required NED Source Folders:

src/                           ✓ Contains gpu/modules/*.ned
simulations/gpu_share_two_vlan/ ✓ Contains GPUShareTwoVlan.ned

Validation:

Both folders must be in NED path
OMNeT++ IDE: Project Properties → OMNeT++ → NED Source Folders
Command line: opp_run automatically searches src/ and simulations/

✅ 9. Parameter Type Validation

Router Parameters:

int routerId = default(200);                       ✓ Type: int
double forwardingDelay @unit(s) = default(50us);  ✓ Type: double with time unit
bool debug = default(false);                       ✓ Type: bool

omnetpp.ini Assignments:

*.router.routerId = 200        ✓ int literal
*.router.forwardingDelay = 50us ✓ Time value with unit
*.router.debug = true          ✓ Boolean literal

Validation:

All parameter types match between NED and INI
Time units consistent: 50us in both NED and INI
No type mismatches

✅ 10. Statistics Signal Validation

Router Statistics (Router.ned):

@signal[framesRouted](type=long);        ✓ Signal declared
@signal[vlan10ToVlan20](type=long);      ✓ Signal declared
@signal[vlan20ToVlan10](type=long);      ✓ Signal declared

@statistic[routedCount](source=framesRouted; ...) ✓ Statistic uses signal

Router Implementation (Router.cc):

framesRoutedSignal = registerSignal("framesRouted");      ✓ Registered
vlan10ToVlan20Signal = registerSignal("vlan10ToVlan20");  ✓ Registered
vlan20ToVlan10Signal = registerSignal("vlan20ToVlan10");  ✓ Registered

emit(framesRoutedSignal, 1L);    ✓ Emitted
emit(directionSignal, 1L);       ✓ Emitted

omnetpp.ini Recording:

**.router.routedCount.record = count,vector          ✓ Matches statistic name
**.router.vlan10to20Count.record = count,vector      ✓ Matches statistic name
**.router.vlan20to10Count.record = count,vector      ✓ Matches statistic name

Validation:

Signal names match across NED, C++, and INI
Signal types correct (type=long, emit 1L)
Statistics linked to signals correctly
Recording modes valid
