nearChannel The Channel object for the router's near
channel.
farChannel The Channel object for the router's far
channel.
routerType An Integer value indicating the router type.
The valid class values, which are contained
in the ConstRouterClasses constant, are as
follows:
0 lcaConfiguredRouter
1 lcaLearningRouter (*see notes)
2 lcaRepeater
3 lcaBridge
4 lcaPermanentRepeater
5 lcaPermanentBridge
Notes:
The lcaLearningRouter (1) value is not
supported by OpenLNS. If you write the
lcaLearningRouter (1) value to this
property, it will automatically be converted
to lcaConfiguredRouter (0).
A permanent repeater or bridge cannot be
changed to a non-permanent class.
Similarly, a non-permanent class cannot be
changed to a permanent repeater or bridge.
flags A Long value specifying the add options for
this router.
The possible values of this element, which
are defined in the ConstRouterFlags
constant, are as follows:
0 lcaRouterFlagNoSplit
The router should be added normally.
This method behaves identically to the
Routers collection’s Add method if the flags
parameter is set to 0.
1 lcaRouterFlagSplit
The router being added splits a previously
defined channel into two pieces. When this
option is specified, the NSS splits the
channel and automatically relocates nodes
which are to end up on the far side of the
router.
A permanent bridge or permanent repeater
cannot be used to split a channel. A router
cannot perform a split if it would result in a
subnet broadcast connection spanning the
router. This option only applies if the
