[ns] doubt regarding flooding enhancements in aodv protocol..

[Kanthi]

Hi Krithiga,

You may want to check the functions

recvRequest
recvReply

in aodv.cc (I am assuming you are using default AODV code in NS-2.28)

They are the functions which deal with receiving and forwarding of RREQ
and RREP packets.

There is no separate "flooding" module. Just that control packets are
broadcast and "recently" forwarded control packets are not re-broadcast by
the node.

Thanks,
Kanthi
