Coarse representation of the link type.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant	Description
`DIRECT`	Signifies that this is a direct single-segment link.
`EDGE`	Signifies that this link is an edge, i.e.
`INDIRECT`	Signifies that this link is potentially comprised from multiple underlying segments or hops, and as such should be used to tag links traversing optical paths, tunnels or intervening 'dark' switches.
`OPTICAL`	Signifies that this link is realized by fiber (either single channel or WDM).
`TUNNEL`	Signifies that this link represents a logical link backed by some form of a tunnel, e.g., GRE, MPLS, ODUk, OCH.
`VIRTUAL`	Signifies that this link is a virtual link or a pseudo-wire.

- Enum Constant Detail
  - DIRECT
```
public static final Link.Type DIRECT
```
    Signifies that this is a direct single-segment link.
  - INDIRECT
```
public static final Link.Type INDIRECT
```
    Signifies that this link is potentially comprised from multiple underlying segments or hops, and as such should be used to tag links traversing optical paths, tunnels or intervening 'dark' switches.
  - EDGE
```
public static final Link.Type EDGE
```
    Signifies that this link is an edge, i.e. host link.
  - TUNNEL
```
public static final Link.Type TUNNEL
```
    Signifies that this link represents a logical link backed by some form of a tunnel, e.g., GRE, MPLS, ODUk, OCH.
  - OPTICAL
```
public static final Link.Type OPTICAL
```
    Signifies that this link is realized by fiber (either single channel or WDM).
  - VIRTUAL
```
public static final Link.Type VIRTUAL
```
    Signifies that this link is a virtual link or a pseudo-wire.
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static Link.Type[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
    for (Link.Type c : Link.Type.values()) System.out.println(c);
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static Link.Type valueOf(String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    NullPointerException - if the argument is null
