Network Simulator 2 [ The Great NS2]

Hi guys,
  Today i installed ns2 on my friends laptop.The installation procedure is very
easy.Just boom the install file and it ll compile all code pieces for you.Then you
need to set the path for the libraries and bin of ns( To set path refer my
previous posts).
  I just made a simple program ( foo.tcl ).Then compile it using nm.It produces
out.nam file.Then i run the out.nam file using nam(network animator).I saw the
nodes just i created minutes before in the tcl script.Thats really cool.

  1. Hello.

      • Hello,
        I’m happy to your help.
        I’m doing the graduation project with “Routing in P2P”, so I need to do experiment simulations about P2P.
        I know that NS2 based on C + + and OTCL language, but according to what I search on google, the code of OTCL and C + + are written difficult (because have a little tool to support ),.
        I want to find a tool like the . Net programming.
        Beside I know that NS-2 can work on Eclipse, I did step by step instructions to install Cygwin, NS-2.2.29 and TCL, but my problem is not known how to create a project, how to compile NS-2 in Eclipse. I need some code examples about NS-2 demo projects in Eclipse.
        Thank you very much.

      • Hi,
        I dont understand what you mean to say.If you are asking any documentation means they are available online.I found that the ns2 documentation itself is quite enough with good examples to learn.Try it.All the Best 😉

    How to send packets from node to wireless base station?
    Please help me. Thank you very much.

    • Iam doing project in cellular systems. can u please tel me how to simulate base station with channel allocation
