[Ns-developers] MANET OpenGL Network Visualizer

[Mihai Oprea]

I am trying to work with this visualizer, however I am not sure how I can
get NS-3 to output trace files that are compatible with it. Has anyone tried
this before?
(I know the simulator is supposed to work with output from NS-2, is there a
way to generate that?)

Thanks,

Mihai
