  1. System requirements

    For install the NS-2.35 , we need the following minimum system requirements.
    1)OS : ubuntu-14.04 LTS(32 bit)
    2)RAM :minimum 2GB
    3)Processor: 2.5 GHz and aboveSystem requirements

  2. Source code for main file

    Store the main source file with the filename without any whitespaces, and also stored in the folder name without any whitespacesSource code for main file

  3. Open the terminal and verify the installed package

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

  4. Change the location

    Change the location by using the command cdChange the location

  5. Execute/run the main tcl file

    To perform the process of Execute/run the main tcl file by using the command sudo ./ns main.tcl
    in the above command the ns is the keyword to call the network simulator process , the main id the file name and also the tcl is the file extensionExecute/run the main tcl file

  6. Auto generated nam trace file

    By using the command sudo ./ns main.tcl and also the auto generated trace file.Auto generated nam trace file

  7. Open the trace file

    By using the command sudo ./ns main.tcl to open the auto generated trace file. After that execute the graph main fileOpen the trace file

  8. Select the nam trace

    After that to select the NAM trace file for NAM console.Select the nam trace

  9. Get the simulation

    The main id the file name and also the tcl is the file extension. By using this process to execute the network simulator to get the simulation successfully.Get the simulation

  10. Execute the simulation Results

    Press the play button to start the simulationExecute the simulation Results
