Time needed: 6 minutes

Follow from Step 1 to Step 9 in order to create NS3 using Simulation projects. Quick guide to create NS3 simulation. Reach us , if you want an customize NS3 simulation projects works for scholars.

1. Install the NS-3.26

   Initially , install the NS-3.26 tool by using the ns-allinone-3.26.tar.bz2 package. For make install use and execute the command ./build.py

2. Open the terminal

   Initially,Next open the terminal by press ctrl+alt+T buttons or search from the installed software list.

3. Configure the package

   Include the header files for the needed modules.

6. MANET process

   Load the dataset for perform the MANET process

7. Construct the network

   Construct the network by using the nodecontainer , with create fuction. In the create function we specify the no of nodes.

8. Run the simulation

   By using the nodecontainer , with create fuction. In the create function we specify the no of nodes. To accesss the Open Source code for run the simulation.

9. Execute the main file

   Next, execute the main file by using the command sudo ./waf –run simple –vis
