[ns] Emulation Basic Hardware Requirements

[vngo@engmail.uwaterloo.ca]

Hi all,

I have been trying to blindly run sample emulation scripts using nse without 
fully understanding the requirements needed to run them.  If I were to run a 
simple ping responder what requirements and steps would I need?  

ie.  I have a Linux machine connected to a LAN.  How many network cards do I 
need in it?  When I run an emulation script, do I need to go to another 
machine and manually ping the emulation machine and see if packets are 
displayed in the NAM?  Do other machines need to be involved in the emulation 
and have ns2 installed and running simultaneously?

Any input is greatly appreciated,

Vincent Ngo
