Hello all,
I am using ns-allinone-2.28 on cygwin (win XP). I had to create a "clone" of AODV and change its some attributes with a new name according to my scenario. I named my protocol "aodv_au" and copied the aodv folder changing its name to aodv_au. Then I changed every "aodv" word in aodv*.cc/h/tcl files(i know this sounds stupid!!!) to aodv_au, including the file names in that copied folder. My aim was to create a second aodv with a name (aodv_au) first, then to change it step by step. And by following Francisco Ros's tutorial -which is quite helpful- (http://masimum.dif.um.es/nsrt-howto/html/), I made necessary changes and additions as well(packet.h, priqueue.cc, cmu-trace.h/cc, ns-lib/default/packet.tcl, makefile, etc.). After "touch"ing packet.cc , I recompiled ns2, by running "make". When I tried to run a script with my own protocol name it gave this famous "wrong node routing agent" error. After changing lowercase and uppercase version of the routing agent name in my script thinking that the name might be wrong somehow, I tried to find an answer for my problem in ns-users archive. I downloaded all the archive text files since 1998 and tried to find an answer. As an answer, for troubleshooting, Mr.Ros was suggesting to change ns-lib.tcl file as below: switch -exact $routingAgent_ { #.... default { puts "Wrong node routing agent!: $routingAgent_" exit } #..... } just to see which routing protocol name is coming up as the routing agent, i think. However, even after this change and while expecting to see something like "wrong node routing agent: XXXX", I saw the same error without any routing agent name: "wrong node routing agent!". I did "make clean", and recompiled everything again. However, I am still getting the same error. Why does my change in "ns-lib.tcl" not affect the error message? If anybody had this error before, I saw too many messages about this issue, please let me know how you solved this problem. Any ideas/answers will be appreciated... thank you Cenker __________________________________________ Yahoo! DSL Something to write home about. Just $16.99/mo. or less. dsl.yahoo.com
