Simulation in Ns2

For your ease, we have highlighted the steps that are essential for the execution of Ns2 simulation.

  • Create source file using C++ and store that with the source code in ns-allinone-2.35/ns-2.35 folder
  • Creation of main simulation file using Tcl script language and store that in project location
  • Generation of animated results based Ns2 simulation trace files using Nam
  • Generation of graph values based on Ns2 simulation trace files using awk

To this end, we hope that we have delivered the enough knowledge about the process of implementation of Ns2. But it is not the end of our research assistance and you can contact us to aid more essentials about this process. Ping us and acquire more research assistance!!!
