Hi, Joachim
I am a NS2 beginner and I use NS 2.30. I found a file called flood.tcl in ~/tcl/mobility/flood.tcl. Does this means NS2 already includes the broadcast (or flooding) routing protocol for wireless network? If it is could you please give me a simple example to show how to use it? I appreciate any help and I need this answer very urgent. Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joachim Fabini" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Cc: "'Joachim Fabini'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 4:42 AM Subject: [ns] NS tutorial update proposal > > Hi all, > > I noticed that section VII of Marc Greis' tutorial is seriously > out of sync with the NS 2.30 sources. > > First, the ping example is now included in the apps > directory of the ns distribution (this is worth mentioning in > the tutorial text), > Second, some functionality has been added to the apps/ping example > (e.g. broadcast) and > Third, the location, encapsulation and access methodology for some > (former) member variables has been changed (improved imho, but > with the drawback of not being backward compatible). > > Specifically the third aspect requires to update the tutorial. > Newbies are likely to be confused by the changes and compiler > errors when they write their own protocols based on the ping > sample as a template.
