Generating packets in ns-3-click

All:

Note: I've also posted this to the ns-3-users list but I've got no 
response so far.


I am running ns-3 with click integration and I'd like to generate 
packets from within the click graph instead of from within ns-3 
components. I'm having trouble, however, getting the packets to inject 
properly into the simulation. Here is my approach:

 From within a click element I create a new packet with Packet::make. 
Source IP is assigned the node that is creating the packet and 
destination is the broadcast address 10.1.255.255. If I place a Print 
element in line after this in the router I see the following:

...:   36 | 45000024 00000000 40110000 0a010101 0a01ffff 02ba02ba 
00100000 31302e31 2e312e31

which looks reasonable. I also have UDP traffic being generated from an 
ns3::UdpSocketFactory. That traffic looks like

...:  540 | 4500021c 02610000 40110000 0a010101 0a010102 c001c350 
02080000 00000000 00000000

So the format looks reasonable but the click packet hits the wire as 
some LLC protocol (presumably from lack of proper header application) 
while the ns-3 packet goes out as a proper UDP packet. Every packet 
follows the same path out of the router.

I tried to modify simclick_simpacketinfo within the packet to properly 
represent the simulation id but with no luck.

Is there some process by which packets generated within click can be 
incorporated into a running simulation?


Thank you,
