Hello, there!

I wanna simulate the packet loss rate of PIM-SM(during the tree
transition).
I can configure the multicast source's data rate(e.g. pcm, pcm2, pcm4,
gsm and so on)??

Date: Thu, 11 Sep 1997 14:45:53 -0700
From: John Heidemann <johnh@ISI.EDU>



Ns-2.0 has been released.  Instructions for getting and building ns
are at <http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-build.html>.


WHAT'S NS?
----------

Ns is a discrete event simulator targeted at networking research.
It provides substantial support for simulation of TCP, routing, and
multicast protocols.

Ns began as a variant of the REAL network simulator in 1989 and has
evolved substantially over the past few years.  The ns development
effort is now an ongoing collaboration with the VINT project.


WHAT'S NEW IN 2.0?
------------------

This version is the first non-beta release of ns-2.0.
By non-beta, we mean that it (nearly) completely subsumes ns-1
in functionality and has substantial documentation.
Ns includes:


- an accurate (although not necessarily complete :-) man page

- substantial additional documentation based on a SIGCOMM '97 tutorial
    (available at <http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-documentation.html>,
    new since 2.0b17)

- complete ns-1 functionality
    (although some changes to ns-1 have not necessarily been ported to
    in ns-2, see <http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-1-2.html>)

- substantial new functionality (compared to ns-1)
    (multi-path routing, RTP, additional scheduling algorithms,
    SRM, ``centralized multicast'', link-layer, MAC, and shared
    channel modules for mobile hosts)

- backwards compatibility with ns-1 scripts
    (with some small exceptions, see
    <http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns.html>)


Ns-2.0 is available from
<http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-build.html>
and requires TclCL-1.0b3 (also available there),
Tcl-7.6 and otcl-0.96.

are at <http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/nam.html>.

 
WHAT'S NAM?
- ----------

Nam is a Tcl/TK based animation tool for viewing network simulation traces
and real world packet traces. It supports topology layout, packet level
animation, and various data inspection tools.

Nam began at LBNL. It has evolved substantially over the past few years.
The nam development effort is now an ongoing collaboration with the VINT
project.
 
 
WHAT'S NEW IN 1.0a2?
- ------------------
 
This version is the first public alpha release of nam-1.0.

Nam includes:
 
- - various data inspection tools, including monitors for packets and 
    protocol agents, inspection of parameters of nodes and links, charting
    link utilization and packet losses.

- - supports multiple views of the same topology, as well as zoom and
    panning of any view.

- - automatic topology layout

- - an accurate (although not necessarily complete :-) man page

Nam-1.0a2 is available from
<http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/nam.html>

Ns-2.1b2 has been released.  Instructions for getting and building ns
are at <http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-build.html>.
Latest version of tclcl (formerly known as libTcl) v1.0b5 has also been
released and can be found in the same location as above. 

WHAT'S NS?
----------

Ns is a discrete event simulator targeted at networking research.
It provides substantial support for simulation of TCP, routing, and
multicast protocols.

Ns began as a variant of the REAL network simulator in 1989 and has
evolved substantially over the past few years.  The ns development
effort is now an ongoing collaboration with the VINT project.


WHAT'S NEW IN 2.1b2?
--------------------

New features in this version include:

- test-suites: bugs fixed for TCP vegas, rate based pacing(RBP) added,
tcp-full added

- bugs fixed to make ns compatible with the new tcl/tk8.0p2

- Extended emulation support (under separate emulate subdirectory).Need to
build "nse" instead of "ns" to include emulate functionality. The
emulation stuff is to be considered under development.

- srm-topo{.cc.h} added to support large scale simulations for SRM

- Some changes/enhancements made (e.g random number generator
sequence for rtglib, TTLchecker decrements ticks other than
1, addition of tcp-session, implementation of "corrected"
timestamp echo algorithm for TCP, advance and advanceby commands for
CBP etc.)

- ErrorModules added, useful for injecting specific packet drops into
simulations

- Extended support for ECN notification by RED Queues

- some more bugs fixed and example test files added (tcl/ex and tcl/sesion)

Ns-2.1b2 is available from
<http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-build.html>

IMPORTANT: Note ns-2.1b2 requires TclCL-1.0b5, otcl-1.0a2,
Tcl/Tk-8.0 or Tcl7.6/Tk4.2.

Thanks,
Padma.

Subject: Planned changes to the ns multicast internals
Date: Tue, 02 Jun 98 01:27:36 PDT
Sender: kannan@ISI.EDU

This is just a brief note to describe the changes we are making
to the internal multicast routing protocols in ns.  If you are
only using multicast routing as a infrastructure mechanism,
and the protocol you use is one of dense mode, or centralized
multicast routing, then these changes need not affect you.
More particularly, these changes can simplify your coding, and
also provide improved features that you would use.  However,
if you are looking at multicast routing, or are using PIM
as your multicast routing protocol, then these changes could
affect you adversely.  To understand the nature of the impact,
we would like to hear from you as to exactly what your multicast
routing work is, or how and why you are using PIM, and to better
understand your needs and concerns.

These changes are scheduled to occur before the next release,
currently impending.  Subsequently, we are also considering
the implementation of a sparse mode multicast routing protocol
as well.  Some of the issues we expect to address are:

- redesign of the network interfaces code.  This would make it
	easier to compose complex links etc. without requiring
	knowledge of the internal structure of links and nodes.
	Thus, this eliminates the need for kludges such as:

		if link head is DuplexNetworkInterface ; then
			do something
		else
			do something else
		fi

- provide increased tracing support in multicast

- devolve support for the MultiLink and MultiLinkofInterfaces
	forms of LANs.

	However, we plan to add support to the LAN models
	done by the Daedalus group at Berkeley.

- eliminate the flag variable, Simulator::NumberInterfaces_.  Users
	no longer need worry or specify this variable.  This 
	setting will be quietly ignored, even if the user sets it.

- Similarly, the flag variable, Simulator::EnableMcast_ is to be phased out,
	in favour of a method based invocation of the same.  The premise
	is that, in an OO environment, methods good, flags bad.

- we expect to work on the dense mode, and centralized multicast code,
	and over a brief span of time, provide a simple sparse mode
	implementation of multicast.

	At least the first two items will be completed before the
	impending release.

	In particular, we do not plan to upgrade the PIM implementation 
	in ns at this time.

For those people working on internal multicast routing, there may be
additional impact.  This also impacts those who are using the PIM
implementation in ns at the present time:

- cleanup some of the internal multicast code, to make it easier
	to experiment with multicast routing protocols.
	in particular, we plan to restructure the internals to
	conform to the idioms of the appropriate programming
	language.  Since most of multicast is in OTcl, this means
	that the OTcl code will change.  One common example of
	change is code such as:

	<mrtproto> instproc <method> { argslist } { ...  }

	will change to

	<mrtproto> instproc <method> { args } { ...  }

		In this case, the args form of input arguments to
		a procedure call is a Tcl idiom, and hence is
		*more natural* to OTcl; however, it means that
		functions that call this method should no longer
		wrap their arguments into a single list.  In
		particular, this will cause OTcl to pass the
		arguments as a doubly nested list, and likely
		confuse such methods.

	This also involves other changes to the internal calling
	APIs that could affect the way the base classes interact
	with your routing protocol.  We will attempt to document

We spammed the e2e, the manet, and the tcp-impl lists, and
forgot the core ones :-( Here's the announcements for the
next VINT/ns workshop, August 7th, Washington DC.  Sorry
for the mixup:

=========================================================
We would like to announce the 3rd ns simulator workshop,
to be held at GMU, Arlington campus on August 7th.  We
intend to cover essentially the same material we covered
at the earlier workshops, with updates based on new
functionality added to the simulator.

This workshop is for researchers who would like to use
ns more actively, or extend its functionality.  We will
discuss the primary components of the ns simulator and
various issues in adding new routing or transport
protocols.

For more information, please see the web page at:

	http://www-mash.CS.Berkeley.EDU/ns/workshop3.html

For this event, there will be charge of US$50 (US$25 for
full time students) due by July 31, 1998 to cover meals
and copying charges.

For your convenience, a copy of the registration form is
appended to this message.

Ns 2.1b3 and ns-allinone 2.1b3 have now been released !

WHAT'S NS?
----------

Ns is a discrete event simulator targeted at networking research.
It provides substantial support for simulation of TCP, routing, and
multicast protocols.

Ns began as a variant of the REAL network simulator in 1989 and has
evolved substantially over the past few years.  The ns development
effort is now an ongoing collaboration with the VINT project.

WHAT'S NS-ALLINONE?
----------
 
Ns-allinone is a package which contains required components and some of
optional components used in running ns. The package contains an
"install" script to automatically configure, compile and install these
components. If you haven't installed ns before and want to quickly try
ns out, ns-allinone may be easier than getting all the pieces by hand.


WHAT'S NEW IN NS 2.1b3?
--------------------

New features in this version include:

- Test-suites: Validation tests for Full TCP, ECN, TCP initial windows,
               manual routing, session simulation 

- scneario generator: routing generator, agent generator and topology
                      generator

- Revised API between Agents and Applications.

- Reworked RLM implementation

- Many changes to FullTcp (fixes to timestamps; restructuring of dupack
  actions; fix an off-by-1 problem for window deflation; ECN; 5 new tests
  to test-suite-full.tcl; adding tracing of the congestion action bit)

- Added support for classinstvars (delayed binding between C++ and Tcl) 
  to save memory

- Added support for exhaustive selective packet loss over lans.

- Added token bucket filter support

- Added Packet Reference Count for SessionSim

- Lots of additions and mods for snoop version 2 and Explicit Loss
  Notifications

- Added support for measurement based admission control for controlled
  load service

- Revised and more flexible addressing format which allows allocation
  of bits for port, node and mcast fields

- Added support for hierarchical routing for up to 3 levels

- Trace: nam trace functionality to admission control modules.
         nam trace functionality to tcp, srm event and statistical info
 
WHAT'S NEW IN ns-allinone 2.1b3 ?     
 
The ns-allinone release (2.1b3) includes
 
- Tcl     Tcl release 8.0p2     (required component)
- Tk      Tk release 8.0p2      (required component)
- Otcl    otcl release 1.0a3    (required component)
- TclCL   tclcl release 1.0b6   (required component)
- Ns      ns release 2.1b3      (required component)
- Nam     Nam release 1.0a4     (optional component)
- Xgraph  xgraph version 12     (optional component)
- Gt-itm  GT-ITM & sgb2ns 1.1   (optional component, currently only on
				 SunOS, Solaris, and FreeBSD)

Ns-2.1b3 and ns-allinone-2.1b3 are available from
<http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-build.html>

Ns-2.1b3 requires TclCL-1.0b6, otcl-1.0a3, and either
Tcl-7.6/Tk4.2 or Tcl/Tk-8.0.  New versions of TclCL and otcl are also
available from <http://www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu/ns/ns-build.html>.

From: Kevin Fall <kfall@cs.berkeley.edu>


We would like to announce the 5th ns simulator workshop/tutorial,
to be held at UC Berkeley on June 14, 1999.  We
intend to cover essentially the same material we covered
at the earlier workshops, with updates based on new
functionality added to the simulator.

This workshop is for users, researchers, and developers who
would like to learn about the ns simulator, use it more actively,

Dear sir ,

i have read your totourial about Ns entitled : NS Tutorial : mobile and
wireless Network september 10th, 1999.
in the page summary (2) it's mentioned that Ns can be used ti simulate
Base station node to bridge wired domain and wireless domain.
i have downloaded all the documenation about ns , i havent seen any detailed
information about how to write a program using a bass station for bridgenig.
i have also downloaded the CMU extension to ns documentaion . no mention for
base station also.

please i need that information.

what i need exactly is to write a simple program simulate a node represent the
wired domain, another node represent a base station , and finally a third node
represent the mobile node so to measure the performance of the TCP/IP for
diffrent cases.

so plz if you can provide me the help on that.

thanks a lot .


hoping to hear from you soon.


best regards,

Eng. aiman sirhan

Dear Sir or Madam,

     Hello,I have some problems in visualization and trace file
     format with wireless network simulation(ad-hoc networks).
     it will be appreciated that you give me some suggestions
     and advises.
     
     Since ns2.1b6's nam does not support wireless packet
     sending/receiving, I have tried to take the scenario file, communication
     file and trace file generated by ns2.1b6 to ad-hockey to
     visualize them. But the trace file generated by ns-2.1b6 is in a
     different format from ns2.1b3 extension and cann't be used directly by ad-hockey.

     I wonder whether ns itself provides a better visualization tool for
     ad-hoc network simulation in its later release. Or, are there
     some easy ways for me to transform the trace file generated by ns
     2.1b6 to the format accepted by ad-hockey?

     Look forward to your response. Thanks a lot!

Best regards,
Liu Yong                        mailto:lyong@csnet4.cs.tsinghua.edu.cn

Dear Sir,

 I would like to have some information about the ns. The goal of my Master
Thesis is to evaluate the performance comparison of four routing protocols
already implemented in the BLUETOOTH environment. So how to get a
transmission range of 10 meters and a bandwidth of 1Mb/s ?

  Thanks in advance.

  Best Regards

                                                                 FREDERIC

The ns and related web pages have moved from www-mash.cs.berkeley.edu
to www.isi.edu.  The new URLs:

ns:		http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/index.html
nam:		http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/nam/index.html
xgraph:		http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/xgraph/index.html
otcl:		http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/otcl/index.html
tclcl:		http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/tclcl/index.html

http downloads:	http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/dist/
ftp downloads:	ftp://ftp.isi.edu/nsnam/

In addition, the http/ftp downloads have been slightly rearranged.
(The main difference is the snapshots are now labeled "-snapshot"
rather than "-current".)

Cvsweb and web page searching (htdig) are not yet working but will be
restored shortly.

We've tried to update all of the web pages and links to their new
homes, but there are certainly some incorrect links.  If you detect
broken or old links that should be pointing to the new web pages,
please let us know (with mail to ns-users).  (Some links to external
pages may remain broken, but the internal links should be correct.)

The mailing lists are still hosted at mash.cs.berkeley.edu.  they will
move to isi.edu sometime soon.  A separate announcement will be sent
out when that happens.

ns-allinone-2.1b7a has been released.  Instructions for getting and building ns
are at <http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-build.html>.  This release is 
exactly what was in ns-2.1b7 with these bug fixes/enhancements:

- a bug in gen-map is fixed 
- a heap scheduler memory leak is fixed 
- nse should now build on FreeBSD and Linux 
- the allinone release should build cleanly on Solaris machines 
- allinone information about modifying PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH
	is now clarified 

There will not be a release of "ns-2.1b7a", users who want these bug
fixes outside of ns-allinone are encouraged to get a daily snapshot.

There will not be another bug-fix release to 2.1b7; any additional
fixes will appear at <http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-problems.html>
and/or the mailing list.
