Pedro Your comments are much appreciated but unfortunately have left me, as a newcomer to NS2 (as well as C++ and Tcl), as unclear as I was. If you have added a patch (which I have located) recently to enable pkt colouring in wireless scenarios it would suggest that visualisation of pkt movement within wireless networks is now supported in NS2 and that this is not just an aspect of the DCCP patch. Is this correct?
Can you direct me to an example of a reasonably simple sample code that implements nam visualisation of pkt movements & drops or, if you are familiar with Marc Gries' tutorials tell me what is missing from them or needs to be added to them to be able to see pkt movements in nam. Regretably I have knowledge of what L2 and L3 logging you are referring to, I'm still operating at a higher level at the moment!
