This is definitely not a simple/good idea.
Each node is represented by multiple addresses, see http://tagus.inesc-id.pt/~pestrela/ns2/ns2_haddr_tips.html, so you must make sure that everything is updated And most NS2 components probably were designed for constant addresses. I suggest you try making a reset on the routelogic object to make ns2 recompute the static routes at run-time and use $ns rtproto Session Pedro Vale Estrela > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of Ghirmay Desta > Sent: quinta-feira, 30 de Março de 2006 20:50 > To: ns-users@ISI.EDU > Subject: [ns] is "address_" the routing address of a node? > > > I have added the following code in the OTcl > implementation of Node. > > Node instproc set-address addr { > $self instvar address_ > set address_ $addr > } > > During simulation I am using it to change the address > of a node.
