           Summary: ErrorModel attribute name is not consistent across
                    devices
           Product: ns-3
           Version: ns-3-dev
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: ASSIGNED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: devices
        AssignedTo: craigdo at ee.washington.edu

IMO, the name of this attribute should be aligned across devices, even though
it is an API change.

In PointToPoint:
                   .AddAttribute ("ReceiveErrorModel",
                   "The receiver error model used to simulate packet loss",
                   PointerValue (),
                   MakePointerAccessor
(&PointToPointNetDevice::m_receiveErrorModel),
                   MakePointerChecker<ErrorModel> ())

In CSMA:
                   .AddAttribute ("RxErrorModel",
                   "The receiver error model used to simulate packet loss",
                   PointerValue (),
                   MakePointerAccessor (&CsmaNetDevice::m_receiveErrorModel),
                   MakePointerChecker<ErrorModel> ())

(Note:  there presently is no ReceiveErrorModel in Bridge, SimpleNetDevice, or
Wifi.  I would also propose to add this attribute to SimpleNetDevice, at the
very least, once the naming alignment is settled.  Is there a reason why not to
include in all current NetDevices?)
