Methods

o connectionSetup 
 public abstract SignallingContext connectionSetup(Long connID_,
                                                   int fromPort_,
                                                   VPIVCI fromVCC_,
                                                   InetAddress dest_,
                                                   SignallingContext oSide_) throws RemoteException
Creates a new signalling context. Called from the neighbouring node during a connection setup phase.

Throws: RemoteException
If remote method call fails
o connectionSetup 
 public abstract SignallingContext connectionSetup(Long connID_,
                                                   VPIVCI fromVCC_,
                                                   InetAddress dest_,
                                                   SignallingContext oSide_,
                                                   InetAddress clientIP_,
                                                   InetAddress prevRouterIP_) throws RemoteException
Creates a new signalling context. Called from the neighbouring node during a connection setup phase.

Throws: RemoteException
If remote method call fails
o ping 
 public abstract void ping() throws RemoteException
A method for the adjacency protocol. Called by neighbouring signalling peers to ensure that the link is up.

Throws: RemoteException
If remote method call fails
o tell 
 public abstract int tell(InetAddress IP_,
                          SignallingPeer peer_) throws RemoteException
A method to set up the adjacency connection between adjacent signalling peers. Called by each of the neighbours when they want to inform of themselves.

Returns:
The port number where the caller resides
Throws: RemoteException
If remote method call fails
