This is a good point
To minimize it, i suggest you to make a simple wired link with
0.1 delay and "infinite" bandwidth

This requires a manet protocol which is hierarchical-aware, which I don't
think the implemented Ns2 protocols support. The other solution has the
benefit of not requiring MANET protocols any changes.

[ns] A router (gateway) between two ad hoc networks

2006-09-28 Thread M.Ghader

Hello,
 
I am trying to implement a router (gateway) between two ad hoc networks
using hierarchical addressing and in two different domains. As an
example:
 
MANET 1:
1.0.1
1.0.2
 
MANET 2:
2.0.1
2.0.2
2.0.3
 
A shortcut solution is to use two BaseStationNodes, i.e.:
 
BSNode1: 1.0.0
BSNode2: 2.0.0
 
And linking them with a full duplex link. Since the characteristics of
the wired link will interfere with the simulation, I do not like this
solution.
 
The better solution is to manipulate the ns-bsnode.tcl implementation
for supporting two wireless interfaces in different domains.
 
Could you provide me a solution for this, if anyone has a better one, or
implemented one?
 
Regards,
Majid
