ns-3.2 on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron
November 22nd, 2008 by Jason Ernst
For the next stage of my thesis instead of using the well known ns-2 simulator as originally planned, I have opted to instead use ns-3. I have chosen this particular environment because it seems to be designed from the ground up to be a wireless simulation tool while ns-2 was originally designed solely for wired network simulation. I have made some use of ns-2 however, so if you are looking for a guide to getting that working in Ubuntu see my post “NS-2.33 on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron“. In addition to this, ns-3 no longer uses the tcl scripting language. Instead the choice of pure c++ or a combination of c++ and python may be used to define the simulation parameters. I prefer this approach because I have no desire to learn tcl and find the c++ ns-3 ot be more intuitive than ns-2. Additionally, this guide will be used as a reference for myself while I learn the ns-3 environment. Check back for regular updates and useful infromation.
DD-Wrt Micro on Linksys WRT54Gv6
August 23rd, 2008 by Jason Ernst
Today on a whim I decided to pickup a Linksys WRT54Gv6 wireless router from Staples. It was on sale for $20 off and looked like the last one there. I’ve been looking at the DD-Wrt software for some time since I have an old junky wireless router buried in my closet at home. Unfortunately the old router I have cannot run DD-Wrt so when I saw this one on sale I thought I’d give the WRT54G a try.
Ns-2.33 (and nam) on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron)
June 11th, 2008 by Jason Ernst
Since I have been working with ns2 for the last few months in preparation for my thesis I have decided to write a guide on how to install the most recent version of ns2 on the most recent version of ubuntu (at the time of this writing, Monday June 9th, 2008).
I have found many people already who have had difficulty setting it up so maybe this will be of some help to someone. For this tutorial I am assuming you have installed the most recent version of Ubuntu (8.04). (At the time of writing)
