This should not be a problem, in the GUI mode you can use 'Add-Remove' or 'Synaptic'[*System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager*] If you want to install through command-line .. you can use 'apt-get' (try googling to know more about this). > A network simulator is used to predict the behavior of network. > But I'm confused whether it is a program(a software ) or a hardware. > Any suggestions or references please let me know. Please guide me through this project....... This is an interesting area! Network simulators are used to assess how a computer network would perform under different conditions [various parameters like load,route,number of intermediate devices like routers etc). It can be hardware (embedded with a simulator software ) or a pure software which can be simulated *Some pointers in this direction* http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~szymansk/sonms.html Related Tools etc: http://nsnam.isi.edu/nsnam/index.php/Main_Page -- With Warm Regards, Vikram.
