because node 3 will forward what the source is sending in order to reach the
sink (let's say for example sink = node1 to make it easier)

sorry, it's node 1 (which isn't a "direct" neighbor to the source S)

sorry again, it's "packets"

i mention in addition of what was said that: this simulation is done to
study the behavior of the network after some nodes crash.
so, first i choose some faulty nodes, then , turn them off for the rest of
simulation (they won't receive any packet in the future). in the end of my
simulation, i calculate my packet loss rate (i.e number of sent messages but
not received by faulty nodes once they are stopped).
is it clear now ?
Thanks for your help,
Best regards
