Hi Philip
Im trying to measure the time that a packet required to be received by the
destination. So roughly saying packet propagation time.
For complete packet propagation, i assume i have to consider lots of things, so
at the moment i was looking only the time delay between sendDone() and
receive() by using global simulator time.
Regards
Faisal

What exactly are you trying to measure? Time from send() to receive
()? CPU processing time of the packet? Packet propagation time? MAC
backoff? Queue occupancy time?

Don't do it: CSMA will break in horrible ways.
