[ns] About random mobility of wireless nodes

[Claus Christmann]

HI Gabrial,

I am not sure if nam is the perfect way to look at your wireless
scenario. As far as I know, nam is not really supporting motion...

Also, do you have the following line in you node-config?

$ns_ node-config -movementTrace ON

Hope that helps.
